What is the friction between the air and the surface of a moving object?
Viscous drag on the movement of the falling body due to air medium
Air molecules speed up the movement of objects in motion?
The friction (with the air molecules) would slow it down.
What type of friction slows down movement?
all friction slows down movement
How does friction change the way things move?
Friction is a resistive force, and always acts in a direction opposite the motion of the object. Surface friction is caused by the sliding movement of one surface over another. Air friction is caused by air molecules sliding passed an object. In both cases, it works by transferring kinetic energy from the moving object to the atoms/molecules of whatever is causing the friction.
This force holds back the movement of an object.?
Friction tends to do that.
How does friction affect the movement of a scooter?
there could be friction inside the motor. there is friction on the wheels of the scooter and the ground. there is air friction when you move on a scooter.
What are some examples of car friction?
The movement of the car through the air.
What is the friction between the air and the surface of a moving object?
Viscous drag on the movement of the falling body due to air medium
Air molecules speed up the movement of objects in motion?
The friction (with the air molecules) would slow it down.
How does the Earths surface influence the flow of the air above it?
The surface slows down air movement through friction. On a larger scale, this will also reduce the Coriolis Force applied to the movement of the air.
How dies friction effect the net flow of air around a cyclone and anticyclone?
Without friction air is controlled by pressure differences and the rotation of the earth. Friction slows down the air movement while the pressure source remains the same.
What type of friction slows down movement?
all friction slows down movement
Does salt create friction?
no, movement creates friction
What does friction stop?
movement
How are air resistance and friction alike?
Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.
How does friction move an object?
Friction doesn't cause or create movement, it's a force that prevents or hinders movement.
Why does a child need a push from time to time on a swing?
Because friction, mostly through air drag, slows the movement down.
