What is the name of the force exerted on a child coming down a slide?

Answer #1:
It could be called a lot of things, but you might just call it a push force
or an applied force to be clear.
========================
Answer #2:
After Dad has stopped pushing and the child is in the process of sliding down,
there are two real forces and one pseudo-force acting on her. I don't think any
of them has a name, but they're easy to describe:
-- the gravitational force, pointing straight toward the center of the Earth;
-- the normal force, pointing perpendicular to the slide outward, and equal to the
component of the gravitational force that's perpendicular to the slide inward;
-- the pseudo-force of friction, pointing parallel to the slide, and opposite to the
child's motion;

What forces are acting on you acting on you when you slide down a waterslide?
The downward force of gravity, and the normal force perpendicular to the slide.
I did a huff puff and slide experiment. I know that the added weight effected the frinction bt the cup and table which effected the distance of the cup. How do I word it more scientificaly for a repo?
An objects mass (and/or weight) texture, and surface area all affect the friction force exerted on that object.
How do you use the word collide?
That child is about to fall off of the slide and collide with another child!
How do you make Aluminum foil slide faster than a child sliding down a slide?
Attach a rocket to it.
What are the forces when you go down a slide?
Mainly the force of gravity, and friction.
When does a child on a slide have its maximum kinetic energy?
If the slide has no friction, then at the bottom of the slide. If it does then it's when the child is going the fastest.
How are fricition and force related?
Friction is a force and is the result of any force acting on a object. It is usually associated with two sliding objects or an object sliding across a plane. When a force is exerted on an object an opposing force is created by friction. The opposing force is equal to the exerted force until the exerted force exceeds the limiting friction. The limiting friction is determined by the coefficient of friction between the two surfaces and the "weight" of the object. To put it another way, imagine pushing a sheet of sandpaper across a rubber mat, which would have a high coefficient of friction. The weight of the sandpaper is minimal so the limiting friction is rather small. Now put a 5kg weight on the sandpaper and it becomes much more difficult to get the sandpaper to slide. Max friction = μ.N μ = coefficient of friction N = Normal force("weight")

What is the coefficient of friction between a playground slide and a child if the child accelerates down the slide at 1.16 meters per second squared and the slide is inclined 31 degrees?

What is a safe speed for a child on a slide?
Safe Slide SpeedI would say go with a slide that is the proper size for your child to be able to control the speed of the slide. Any child under 8 should not use one of the slides that are bigger than five foot. Talk with your child's doctor for more advice. There are toddler slides for toddlers now, I think.

A 21.2 kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed?
The answer depends on the incline (slope) of the slide. And, if you want a more realistic answer, a measure of the friction between the child and the slide.
How do you use the word collide?
That child is about to fall off of the slide and collide with another child!
Can a cuboid slide and roll?
It can slide if there is enough force to overcome static friction. Similarly, it can roll if the force is great enough to impart a sufficiently large turning moment (and maintain it).
How do you make Aluminum foil slide faster than a child sliding down a slide?
Attach a rocket to it.
How can land slide affect people?
if a land slide occurs because of frost and surplus water coming of farmers field
What is it about the objects themselves that affect how far they slide?
sliding force.
