What kind of friction results when a wheel turns on its surface?

Rolling friction occurs when a wheel turns on its surface. This type of friction is caused by the contact between the wheel and the surface it is rolling on, which resists the movement of the wheel. Rolling friction is generally lower than sliding friction, making it easier for the wheel to move.


What is rolling friction and sliding friction?

I assume this relates to a wheel. When the wheel is rolling, the surface of the wheel is not moving relative to the surface of the road when they are in contact. however, the wheel deforms slightly and because of this, the normal force slightly opposing the motion of the wheel rather than simply pushing it up. This is rolling friction or more commonly known as static friction. When the wheel is sliding, the wheel is sliding over the road's surface, meaning that there is relative movement between the wheel and the road. this is known as sliding friction or kinetic friction.


What type of friction acts on a rolling wheel?

Rolling friction acts on a rolling wheel. It is the resistance that occurs between the wheel and the surface it is rolling on. Rolling friction is generally lower than static or kinetic friction.


When a car is anticipating a turn isn't the steering wheel providing the centripetal force rather than the road friction?

No steering wheel won't provide the centripetal only the friction between the tyre and road provides the necessary centripetal. Steering would simply turn the wheels of the car to the desired direction.


Definition of a Wheel and Axle?

THE ROLLING ITEM THAT MAKES CONTACT WITH THE FRICTION SURFACE [WHEEL] THE THE DEVICE THAT TRANSMIT THE FORCE FROM THE POWER UNIT TO THE WHEEL. [AXLE]


Does a pulley use friction?

No, a pulley does not use friction. Pulleys are simple machines that use a wheel and axle to redirect the force applied to them. Friction is not necessary for a pulley to work properly.


How does friction between the tires and the road work to brake a car?

Friction between the tires and the road provides the necessary force to slow down and stop a car. When the brakes are applied, the brake pads create friction against the brake rotors, reducing the wheel's rotation speed. This decrease in rotational speed leads to a reduction in the car's forward motion, as the tires grip the road surface. The frictional force counteracts the car's momentum, effectively bringing it to a halt.


What is the purpose of a wheel and axle?

The purpose of a wheel and axle is to reduce the total friction that acts against the linear motion of an object along a surface.


Prove that friction is a necessary evil?

Yes necessary evil. If friction is totally absent then no wheel could roll on the road. No chance of walking on the floor. We cannot hold even the pen. Same time too much of friction would bring a terrible loss of energy.


Why wheels are circle?

A wheel is circular to reduce friction with the road surface, and to allow a vehicle to move smoothly forward.


Why is sliding friction less than static friction?

Because when an object is sliding on the other the molecules donnot get time to inter lock properly


How do friction effect mousetrap car?

Friction can affect a mousetrap car in several ways. Higher friction between the wheels and the surface can reduce its speed and efficiency. Properly managing friction through wheel alignment, tire type, and surface smoothness can help improve the performance of a mousetrap car.
