Would rolling friction reduce the net force of an object to zero?

Only if the object does not MOVE. If it moves in any direction, then the NET Force on the Object is NOT ZERO, it is equal to the (Applied Force) - (Friction Force).
So the answer to your question is FALSE.

Wiki User
∙ 13y agosince rolling objects always come to a stop, this is not true
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoYes, friction is a force that always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYes.
If u roll a ball across the floor it accelerates ( net force) but friction opposes it and slows it down until net force is zero when it stops.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoIt depends on the surface so it would be false
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoYES.....!

Do you have to overcome rolling friction when you slide a bag of groceries across the countertop?
If the bag is sliding across the countertop (i.e., the same surface of the bag is always in contact with the counter), then no. Rolling friction is only relevant when the surface of an object in contact with the surface it moves across always changes.
What is the effect of less friction on an object?
If the friction is less, then the position will stay the same and NOTHING would act upon the Object.
What might parachutists do to speed up their rate of fall?
They would have to reduce friction by becoming perpendicular to the ground and reduce their surface area.
What happens to friction when you try to get rid of it?
Friction will reduce when you try to get rid of it. But understand that it is impossible to eliminate friction. A world without friction would not function. The wheels on a car would spin in place, without going anywhere. If you tried to take a step forward, you would fall over, and then be unable to get up. Friction is what makes the world operate when it comes to transportation. --AN AP PHYSICS STUDENT
Why are tools and machines coated with greases?
The grease is there to lessen friction between two metal parts. Without grease the moving parts would heat up due to the friction.
What do you mean by nullifying friction?
To nullify means to eradicate or end something. Friction is a type of force. To nullify friction you would need to reduce the source that is causing the friction in the first place. Eg. If you have a rolling object there is friction. The faster the object the more intense the friction. Therefore if you stop or slow down the object you nullify the frictional force.
What does friction do to the object's motion?
The motion of the object might slow down or just change itself object would resist moving or keep moving. An object can have static friction, sliding friction, or rolling friction.
Does rolling friction push the same direction as the velocity of an object?
If it did, then any rolling object would speed up because of friction. Since everythingthat rolls actually slows down, the virtual 'force' of friction must be exactly oppositethe direction of an object's motion.
What is the definition for rolling friction?
Wheels, ball bearings, the Egyptians building the pyramids using tree trunks to move the stones. An example of rolling friction would be like a skateboard rolling on a sidewalk. car running up a hill. someone pushing a wheel barol A bowling ball
Tell you some apllications of rolling friction?
A wheel is an example of rolling friction. An example of rolling friction would be if you took kyle leary and folled him down a hill. his fat touching the grond would create rolling friction
Would walking impossible without rolling friction?
Yes it would, thank God for rolling friction
Why is a tire rolling on the ground rolling friction?
Friction is the resistance to sliding and as a tire rolls it does resist friction, otherwise it would slide.
What would happen if there was no friction when a tire was rolling on the ground?
It would keep rolling.
How does rolling friction differ from sliding friction?
friction is a eorce of contact between two surfaces which opposes motion of objects over one another. In rolling friction the area in contact between two objects is comparatively less then that in case of sliding as in rolling, one object just roll over each other hence area of contact is less so force of rolling friction is less than sliding friction.
Is static friction stronger than rolling and sliding friction?
It had better be! Otherwise, nothing could ever start sliding ... as soon as yourpull on the string becomes strong enough for the object to break free of thestatic friction and begin to slide, the force of kinetic friction would take over,and it would suddenly be even stronger!
Do you have to overcome rolling friction when you slide a bag of groceries across the countertop?
If the bag is sliding across the countertop (i.e., the same surface of the bag is always in contact with the counter), then no. Rolling friction is only relevant when the surface of an object in contact with the surface it moves across always changes.
What is one example of rolling kinetic friction?
Anything with wheels, such as a car, would be an example of use of rolling kinetic friction.
