1 what force prevents a heavy box from sliding along the floor when you push on it?
Sliding Friction If you push hard enough on the cardboard box filled with books, it will start sliding. If you stop pushing after the box starts sliding, it will slow down and stop. The force that acted on the box to slow it down was sliding friction. Sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of two sliding surfaces in contact. Sliding friction exists between all sliding surfaces that are touching, such as the surfaces of the moving parts in a car's engine.
Friction between sliding surfaces is dependent upon the?
Normal force. :)
Which is force that resists sliding motion between two surfaces in contact?
The force is called friction.
What is the force opposes the sliding motion of 2 surfaces in contact?
Friction. Kinetic friction, to be precise.
Why sliding friction greater than rolling friction and if the area of contact is same?
The FORCE of Friction is INDEPENDENT of Surface Area. Only the 'Coefficient of Friction', and the Force between the two Surfaces. Sliding Friction is greater than Rolling Friction ONLY if the Coefficient of Friction is GREATER for the Sliding Surfaces.

What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.

Friction. Kinetic friction, to be precise.

Friction between solids can be most accurately define as the force that enhances the sliding motion of two surface that are touching each other?
if you on apex and it is not a true or false statement the answer is ((surfaces))
What is the force that can move between surfaces?
The force that can move between surfaces is called friction. It resists the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material element sliding against each other.
What is the equation for sliding friction?
fk = uk*N Where fk = force of kinetic (sliding) friction uk = kinetic frictional coefficient (dependent on 2 materials sliding past each other) N = normal force (force being exerted perpendicular to the surface across which the object is sliding)
What force is always perpendicular to motion?
The force associated with Torque T is always perpendicular to the torque motion, T=FxR.
What is friction?
Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction is a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact.
What is the definition for friction?
a contact force that acts to resist sliding between two surfaces that are touching.
