What else can I help you with?
Which is easier to do- push a drum across the floor in an upright position or roll on its side?
It is easier to roll a drum on its side across the floor due to the reduced surface area in contact with the ground, resulting in less friction compared to pushing it upright. Rolling on its side also allows for smoother movement and better control.
Does friction increase when the surface is smoother?
No, friction actually decreases when the surface is smoother because there are fewer irregularities for the surfaces to interact with, resulting in less resistance. Smoother surfaces allow for easier sliding or rolling of objects.
Science question Is it easier to inline skate on a sidewalk or on grass?
Sidewalk, smoother surface.
It would be easier to move the box if the surface of the ramp was smoother because there would be less?
Friction
How do wheels make it easier to push or pull?
Wheels reduce friction by rolling instead of sliding, making it easier to move objects. This allows for smoother movement and requires less force to push or pull compared to dragging an object across a surface. Additionally, wheels distribute the weight of the object more evenly, further reducing the effort needed to move it.
True or false it is easier to use in line skates when surface is rough?
false of course it is too rough. it is better in smoother places
If a ramp were coated with a smoother surface the ramps efficiency would .?
It would be increased because the loss due to friction would be reduced.
Why is it easier to push a crate over smooth concrete sidewalks than over grass?
It is easier to push a crate over smooth concrete sidewalks than over grass because grass offers more resistance due to its uneven and soft surface. The smooth concrete surface reduces friction and allows for smoother movement of the crate.
Why it is easier to walk on a carpeted floor than on polished smooth surface?
1. It is easier to push a heavy object on a polished wooden because then the box will be easier to push across the floor.
Is it easier to push a box of books across a floor if the is of made wood?
yes, because it has a smooth surface
Why transport is easier in plains than in mountains?
Think of walking across a flat surface (plains), and then walking up a series of hills (mountains). It's easier to travel across plains because they are flat and broad.
What makes an object easier to push or pull?
An object is easier to push or pull when it has less friction with the surface it is on. Friction is the force that resists motion when two surfaces rub against each other. Smoother surfaces and reducing the weight of the object can make it easier to push or pull.
