Sliding friction occurs when two surfaces slide against each other, creating resistance and frictional force that opposes the motion.

Which type of kinetic fiction is usually greater sliding kinetic friction or rolling kinetic friction?

Sliding Kinetic Friction is usually greater than Rolling Kinetic Friction. Sliding Kinetic Friction is caused by two objects being dragged together, providing more opportunity for the objects' microscopic hills and valleys to catch.


What is the relationship between mass and force of sliding friction?

The force of sliding friction is directly proportional to the mass of the object experiencing the friction. As the mass increases, the force of sliding friction also increases. This relationship is described by the equation: force of friction = coefficient of friction * normal force, where the normal force is equal to the weight of the object (mass * acceleration due to gravity).


Which is easier to stop sliding or rolling friction?

== == AnswersIt is easier to stop sliding friction than rolling friction. The force due to sliding friction will always be greater than the force due to rolling friction. And since friction force will be in the opposite direction of motion it will be easier to stop an object in motion that is sliding than one that is rolling.


Is rolling friction greater than sliding friction?

Typically not. However rolling friction is somewhat of a myth. Rolling friction is actually caused by static friction. There are really only two types of friction: Static and Kinetic. That's it! Rolling friction is caused by static friction and the coefficient of friction (which determines its strength) is dependent upon the two materials of interaction.


What kind fo friction will a car skidding on an icy road show?

A car skidding on an icy road will exhibit kinetic friction, which is the force that resists the motion of two surfaces sliding against each other. The low coefficient of friction between the icy road and the car's tires makes it easier for the car to skid.
