is not always directly involved as the transporting medium in mass movement processes, it does play an important role

Is kinetic friction the one that must be overcome in order to start something moving?

No, static friction is the force that must be overcome to start an object moving from rest. Kinetic friction comes into play once the object is already in motion, opposing its movement.


What role does friction play when moving a heavy object?

It can make moving heavy objects easier for example sliding friction you can slide it or rolling friction you can roll the object across some kind of round cylinders or even fluid friction with water running under the object can make it easier.


What are example of static friction?

Having your hands touch. Anything where things aren't moving, they are just touching. If you are asking about Coulomb Friction, static friction is the resistance to movement (sliding) of one object over another when force is applied but there is no movement. Once the objects begin to move in relationship to each other (slide) the force required is lessened and dynamic friction is in play. Static friction requires a greater force to get an object moving, dynamic friction requires a lesser force to keep the object moving.

How does slopevolume of flow and stream bed shape affect a river's speed?

If a rivers slope increases so does water speed. And as more water flows through a river speed also increases due to the volume of flow. As for the stream bed shape , friction affects river speed when the water is deep. Hope i helped!

What causes a stream to meander?

A stream meanders due to a combination of factors such as the flow of water, the slope of the land, and the type of sediment in the streambed. Erosion and deposition processes also play a role in shaping the curves and bends of a meandering stream.


What role does friction play in carrom?

Friction in carrom is important for the pieces to have traction on the board, allowing players to accurately strike and control the movement of the coins. It helps in determining the speed and direction of the coins when struck. In addition, friction also assists in creating spin and deflection when the striker hits the coins.


What type of water is movement of surface water?

The movement of surface water is typically classified as either flowing water, such as rivers and streams, or standing water, such as lakes and ponds. These two types of surface water movement play important roles in shaping landscapes, supporting ecosystems, and providing resources for humans.


How can someone play a stream downloaded game without stream?

You can't.
