What is the direction of the force of friction on wheel of bicycle?
the direction of force of friction provided from earth is in its opposite direction.i.e the wheel and frictional force are both opposite to each other
What does a force in the opposite direction to the motion cause?
A force applied to a moving object in the opposite direction of its motion causes its velocity to decrease.
Would a force have to be applied in the same or opposite direction to stop a moving ball?
The opposite direction. To stop a moving object requires an acceleration in the direction opposite its motion.
What is neccassary to stop a moving object?
A force applied to it in the direction opposite to its motion is.
Will an object move in the opposite direction when force is applied to it?
I don't even know
What is the force tension?
When a force is applied on a string, a restoring force is developed in it in opposite direction of external force.This restoring force of string is tension.
What changes the direction of a force?
Force changes either the speed or the direction of motion, or both.
When drawing a free body diagram for an object on an inclined surface which way does the friction force point?
if in gravity environment it points opposite to the direction it wants to move. That is the force is uphill, parallel to the inclined surface. due to applied force. Under an applied force, again, it points opposite to the direction it wants to move
How it is friction related with work?
Work = Force x Distance Friction is a force usually operating in the opposite direction to the force being applied. Thus friction adds to the size of the force applied and work is increased.
What force is needed to stop an object at constant speed?
Any force will do, but the larger the force, the faster will the object stop. The force, of course, has to be applied in the direction opposite to the movement.
Does a movable pulley changes the direction of force?
Simple Answer:A movable pulley is a class 2 pulley and does not change the direction of the force applied to the object to be moved.Explanation:A simple pulley may be arranged so the force is applied in the direction of motion of the object that is moved or in the opposite direction.A simple pulley with one wheel may be a class 1 or class 2.For a class 1 pulley, the pulley stationary and the force applied to the rope is in the opposite direction as the movement of the object.For a class 2 pulley, the pulley is attached to the moving object and the force applied to the rope is in the same direction as the motion of the object.A compound pulley, consisting of an arrangement of more than one simple pulley, provides many other possibilities with the direction of force either the same direction or the opposite direction of the motion of the object being moved.
When a force is applied to a body in what direction will the body accelerate?
Acceleration is in the same direction as the applied force.
