It is helpful when you stop it helps you from falling if we didn't have friction we would keep going and if you wanted to stop you couldn't,explain, we'll say your riding you bike and there is a car backing up and you can't stop well that's why we need friction so we can stop fast and quick
What else can I help you with?
Name 2 ways that friction is helpful when riding your bike?
Friction lets the drive wheel push you forward, and allows your brakes some bite. Friction make it possible to hold on to the bars. Friction lets you steer.
What are two way that friction is harmful and two ways that friction is helpful when you are riding a bike?
Friction is harmful on a bike by causing wear and tear on the components like brake pads and tires, leading to replacements. It can also make pedaling more difficult, resulting in increased fatigue for the rider. Friction is helpful on a bike by providing the necessary grip between the tires and the road for stability and control. It also aids in slowing down the bike when brakes are applied.
What are two ways that friction is helpful and harmful when riding a bike?
Friction can be both harmful and helpful. Without friction the tires of the bike could not push against the ground to move forward, and the brakes would not stop the bike. However, friction can cause parts of the bike and the tires to wear down. Also, to overcome the friction between the tires and the road you need to pedal harder to go faster.friction is helpful to stop the bike when you put on the brakes but it may be harmful by slowing your speed down. and if you hit the brakes hard at a sudden moment, you could tumble or flip
Does static friction occur when riding a bike?
Yes, static friction occurs between the bike's tires and the road surface when riding. This friction helps the bike maintain traction and grip, allowing it to move forward efficiently and providing stability during turns and braking.
What forces are acting when you are riding and then thrown from your bike?
The forces acting on the bike is gravity, air resistance and friction.
What three forces do you exert while riding a bike?
applied, normal, and friction
What force do you have to overcome when riding a bike?
Friction - several different kinds - and inertia. If riding uphill, also gravity.
Why is riding a bike rolling friction?
Riding a bike experiences rolling friction because the tires are in contact with the ground and the force needed to overcome the resistance of the surface and keep the wheels rolling creates this friction. The deformation of the tire as it grips the ground and the energy loss due to internal friction within the tire also contribute to rolling friction.
When you ride a bicycle whenis friction helpful and when is it not helpful?
Friction is helpful when you need to slow down or stop by applying the brakes. It allows the brake pads to grip the wheel rims and create the necessary force to halt the bike. Friction is not helpful when you want to maintain a constant speed, as it creates resistance that can make cycling more challenging.
If you were riding a bike where would you need a lot of friction?
Between ground and tires and between brake pads and moving surface.
What kind of energy transformations does riding a bike?
When riding a bike, the energy transformations involve converting chemical energy from food into mechanical energy to pedal the bike, which is then transformed into kinetic energy to move the bike forward. Additionally, some of the mechanical energy is lost as heat due to friction between moving parts.
What are the benefits of a bottom bracket upgrade for my bike?
Upgrading your bike's bottom bracket can improve pedaling efficiency, reduce friction, increase durability, and provide a smoother riding experience.
