The amount of friction divided by the weight of an object forms a unitless number called the ... of friction?
coefficientThe amount of friction divided by the weight of an object forms a dimensionless number called the coefficient of friction.
What is inertia and what determines how much i ntertia an object has?
the mass of the object determines the amount of inertia in an object
What determines the size of the pixels in the matrix in computed radiography?
The amount of space.
How can you increase the amount of friction between your shoes and the ground?
by increasing the roughness of the ground or increasing the sole of the shoes
Amount of friction depend on two thing?
The amount of friction between two surfaces depends on more than two things. It could depend on many things like The shared surafce area The amount of force between the objects How rough or somooth the surfaces are The presence of a lubricant or glue Ball bearings Even temperature. Many things affect the amount of friction between things
What determines the amount of sliding friction?
the ammount of force and the surface the object is sliding against
What is one factor that determines the amount of friction between two bodies that are moving across one another?
The friction coefficient of the two 'bodies' determines the retarding friction force. Represented by μ sub f in physics books. Friction coefficients can be measured in a lab or, sometimes, be looked up in books for an approximation. The coefficient is specific to each case.
What determines how much friction occurs in a situation?
never
Is friction important or not?
Yes, it determines the motion and state the object is in.
What determines the size of frictional force?
The size of the normal force and coefficient of friction determines the size of frictional force.
What determines the size of a frictional force?
The size of the normal force and coefficient of friction determines the size of frictional force.
Name sports that are high friction?
Any sport involving motor vehicles involves extremely high friction. This is because the amount of grip between the road and a cars tires determines how fast it can accelerate and move around corners (lateral acceleration).
What does friction have to do with skydiving?
It determines your terminal velocity, depending on your drag coefficient.
What determines which plants to grow?
The amount of precipitation determines which plants to grow where.
The amount of friction divided by the weight of an object forms a unitless number called the ... of friction?
coefficientThe amount of friction divided by the weight of an object forms a dimensionless number called the coefficient of friction.
What surface uses the least amount of friction?
wet surfaces like tiles have the least amount oof friction
What are the factors that determine the amount of friction between two surfaces?
Friction= Normal force* Coefficient of friction
