Mass does not affect the acceleration of an object due to gravity. Any object of any size or mass will fall at the same speed. A ball rolling down an inclined plane is accelerated by gravity, so its speed won't be affected by its mass at all.

Is an wheelbarrow an inclined plane a wedge a lever or a wheel and axle?

A wheel barrow has tow levers (the handles), a wheel and axle (wheel), and some people could say it is an inclined plane BUT only when it is rolling and it is tilted ti be an incline plane. When it is not moving it is a flat plane not an inclined plane. :)

What is the difference between static and rolling friction?

static is standing still, and rolling is movement. static is the friction that prevents the object from moving, rolling is the friction that slows down the object while it is motion.

yes.


Does friction makes objects move faster over an inclined plane?

No, friction tends to oppose the motion of objects moving over an inclined plane, which can make them move slower rather than faster. The amount of friction between the object and the surface of the inclined plane can affect how quickly the object accelerates or decelerates while moving.

What is the friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on called?

The friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on is called rolling friction or rolling resistance. This type of friction is caused by the deformation of the rolling object and the surface as they come into contact, leading to energy loss and slowing down the object's motion.


What would happen if there were no friction between the rolling ball and the ground?

ball will just move without rolling, staying in it's initial position but moving indefinitely (that is if it is given an initial force).


What type of friction is involved in train moving along a track?

The type of friction involved in a train moving along a track is mainly rolling friction. This occurs between the wheels of the train and the tracks they roll on. Rolling friction is less than sliding friction, allowing the train to move more efficiently.
