The friction between a book at rest and the desk it is lying on is an example of what?

This is the example of Newton third law and law of inertia.


What is the relationship between mass and acceleration when there is no friction?

When there is no friction, acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass, according to Newton's second law (F=ma). This means that if force remains constant, acceleration would increase with decreasing mass and decrease with increasing mass.


How does friction decrease the acceleration of a car?

friction decreases the acceleration of a car by creating a greater force which pushes against the acceleration force. the friction is a force, but more of it means that whatever is pushing against it ( acceleration in this case) is made smaller.


Is acceleration and mass inversely proportional?

Yes. Newton's 2nd Law states thatF = ma(where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration),One can see that the force is proportional to the mass and the acceleration, and the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass.


What is the relation between force and acceleration on the basis of graph?

Use Newton's Second Law. Specifically, if you assume that the mass remains constant, then force will be proportional to acceleration. Force divided by mass yields acceleration (without friction, etc.).


Is a cart friction?

No a cart is a vehicle. Friction is resistance to a change in acceleration.


Why does friction stops machines from not being 100 percent efficient?

Because friction causes a dissipation of heat energy and other kinetic energy. If you use the equation f = ma (Newton's law), where f= force, m= mass; a= acceleration, you can apply this to any machine and factor friction into the mass x acceleration equation. it will always decrease hypothetical force when applied with friction.


How would you use the law of acceleration to explain why friction causes a moving object to slow down?

Well friction is the resisting force right. Now according to the law of acceleration the object tends to move in the direction of force. Now 2 forces are working simultaneously and the resultant vector is the one taking action. So if the resultant force is smaller than the applied one the object's acceleration decreases but its momentum doesn't.


How can one determine the friction force when given the mass and acceleration of an object?

To determine the friction force when given the mass and acceleration of an object, you can use the formula: friction force mass x acceleration. This formula helps calculate the force resisting the motion of the object due to friction.


What is the law of force and acceleration and what does it show?

The law states that Force = Mass * Acceleration, and that is what the law shows.


When and how does friction affect the acceleration of a balloon racer?

Friction affects the acceleration of a balloon racer by creating a force that opposes the motion of the racer. Higher friction between the racer's wheels and the surface will result in a lower acceleration, as more energy is needed to overcome this resistance. Reducing friction by using smoother wheels or lubricants can improve the acceleration of the balloon racer.


How does newtons second law apply to rockets?

Well newtons second law is f=ma of force=mass*acceleration, so when creating rockets, scientists must take into account all three of these factors. The mass or weight will determine how much friction it generates and therefor the amount of acceleration needed to surpass the friction. So newtons second law has everything to do with rockets.
