How frictional resistance along a fault affect the force released during an earthquake?

if the frictional resistance is high, the force will be greater, and if the frictional resistance is low, the force will be smaller.


What will happen to an object if the frictional force opposing its motion is greater than the force pushing or pulling it forward?

The object accelerates in the direction of the resultant force.


When force is pushing two surfaces together how does it affect friction?

The frictional force is proportional to the "normal force"; that is, the force pushing the surfaces together, whether that is gravity or anything else.


A boy pushing horizontally on a large heavy table why is it that the table does not move?

The mass of the object (force of gravity) and the frictional force of moving the table are greater than the horizontal force that the boy is exerting on the table... so it won't move


What are the condition of tipping friction?

When the limiting frictional force is greater than the static frictional force, the body will tip about the point before sliding.

Where is the pushing force of the heart greater in arteries or in the veins?

The pushing force of the heart is greater in arteries than in veins. The arteries are closer to the heart itself.


How friction is useful in pushing a car?

If you are behind a car, about to push it forward from a resting position, you will need to exert a force on the car to accelerate it from resting position. While you are pushing against the car, however, there will be a reaction force pushing back at you. In order to produce a large net force against the car without being pushed backward yourself, you need to increase the friction of your feet against the ground...so that the frictional force between your feet and the ground prevents you from sliding backward. The combinations of the frictional force and your force pushing forward against the car will cause the car to move forward. The frictional force of the car being moved from resting position also has to be overcome, of course.
