Best Answer

friction by applying the brakes? When you apply the brakes, there are pads on either side of the metal part of the wheel, they squeeze together tighter and tighter until the wheel stops turning, which stops the motion of the bike.

What is the first index law?

An object in motion tends to remain in motion unless an external force stops it, an object moves in a straight line unless some force diverts it; and for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. An object in motion tends to remain in motion unless an external force stops it; an object moves in a straight line unless some force diverts it.


How do static friction and kinetic differ from each other?

Static friction is a force that must be overcome to start motion. Kinetic friction is the force that must be overcomne during motion or the motion stops.


How does friction help the breaks in a bicycle work?

Because friction stops momentum of force from moving the bike


What kind of force is bike skidding on road?

A bike skidding on a road is experience kinetic friction. This is a dissipative force, in that it takes energy out of a system when motion is in placed and puts the energy into heat.
