Lust.


What is the force that one surface exerts on another when the two rub on each other?

The force that one surface exerts on another when they rub against each other is called friction. Friction is caused by the resistance between the two surfaces as they move past each other, slowing down the motion.


Is the force that one surface exerts upon another surface?

Yes, the force that one surface exerts upon another surface is called contact force. This force occurs when two surfaces are in direct contact with each other and can be either a normal force, frictional force, or tension force depending on the nature of the interaction between the surfaces.


When you sit in a chair it exerts what against you?

It exerts normal force to you.


What force one object exerts on another when they rub together?

The force one object exerts on another when they rub together is called friction. Friction is the resistance that one surface encounters when moving over another surface. It acts in the opposite direction of the motion and is influenced by the nature of the surfaces and the force pressing them together.

What is the force on a surface divided by the total area cover which the force is exerted?

That's the definition of the 'pressure' which the force exerts on the surface.


When does the reaction force occur?

The reaction force occurs simultaneously with an action force as dictated by Newton's third law of motion. It is the force that a surface exerts in response to an object pressing against it.
