if moving with constant velocity the only force to slow it down is kinetic friction; if it is accelerating velocity is not constant and an additional force is being applied.

Does friction affects velocity ratio?

No. The velocity ratio remains constant but the friction absorbs power.


What does friction have to do with skydiving?

It determines your terminal velocity, depending on your drag coefficient.


What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?

The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.


How can you determine the speed of an object that has constant motion if you have a distance vs time graph of the motion?

If constant motion means constant velocity then, total distance / total time = avg velocity => avg speed constant velocity => avg velocity = velocity


What happens of there is no friction?

How does the initial velocity change with he point of released of inclined plane?

the INITIAL velocity does not change. It is constant. however, the velocity changes depends on the friction and inclination of the inclined plane.
