When and object slides over a smooth horizontal surface how does the force of friction depend on the force of gravity on the object?
If the surface is smooth then it is almost frictionless. Hence the body will continue to move with constant velocity. However the object continues in a circular path and the weight is thus the centripetal force. It is assumed that the surface is very large)
The function of endoplasmic reticulum is?
There are two types of endoplasmic reticulate (ER) in cells, smooth and rough. Smooth ER synthesizes and stores steroids. It also holds ions that are needed for a cells chemical functions. In contrast, rough ER builds membrane materials and proteins.
Does a snail move faster on dirt or cement?
It moves faster on cement than it does on dirt.
How do frontonia move?
frontonia move the same way paramecium do: Their surface covered with cilia (in their hundreds), beat to propel the organism through smooth action. It also rotates on its axis. When it runs into obstacles, it stops, reverses, turns on an angle and swims off again.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum analogy?
it is like a highway, cars move from one place to another. Materials are carried by the er and go to other parts of the cell wait never mind this is a rough er
Is greater force needed to move an object over a smooth surface than over a rough surface?
No because an object is much more easily pushed on a smooth surface than a rough because the rough surface will take more effort and energy because of it harsh surface
Is it hard to maneuver a laser mouse?
It depends on what kind of surface you use to move the mouse. If it is a rough surface it is pretty hard to move around. If it is on a smooth surface you can easily move the mouse around. I think the hardest to maneuver is the mouses with a ball in them.

The amount of friction depends on what?
Friction depends on the surface that the object is going against. If an applied force is used to push a box on a ground, the friction is the surface of the ground, may the ground be rough or smooth, there is a force that goes against the applied force. Air friction is also a type of friction that many physics question does not account for, because it is a virtually small force.
What is dynamics in PE?
Its the way you move in a dramatic rough and/or smooth way..
How does a hovercraft travel over rough surfaces?
howercraft can move on rough surface
Are snails faster than slugs?
I dont think anyones too sure. Lets race them!
Why can't a snake move on a smooth surface?
A snake can move on a smooth surface. However, just like most other animals, it does require friction to exist between the surface and its body to move efficiently. A human would have difficulty walking on ice!
Do snails move faster on rough surfaces or smooth surfaces?
Snails move faster on rough objects as the sticky liquid they use for locomotion gets good friction and helps it to move. But on rough surfaces, the frictional force is much less and the snail can hardly move.
Is a present between the surface of round object and surface where its move?
Friction
Why the photograph of the earth shows a smooth curved surface despite the mountains and valleys?
The farther you move away from any object, the smaller any irregularities on the surface are going to appear. Move far enough away and they won't even be noticed. Conversely, a smooth sheet of paper will appear to be covered with mountains and valleys if examined under high magnification.
An object at rest on the earths surface has two forces acting upon it what are they and why doesnt the object move?
Gravity and the upward force of the surface the object is resting on.
