Actually, friction does depend on velocity. If you stop your car you have to ease up on the brakes as you slow down because friction increases as you slow down. This effect has been observed for objects travelling at bullet velocities. Friction decrease as speed increases.

Does speed affect the friction between a road and a skidding tire?

Speed does not affect the force of friction.


How is friction connected to speed in the context of motion and velocity?

Friction is a force that opposes motion, so it can slow down an object and affect its speed. In the context of motion and velocity, higher friction can decrease speed, while lower friction can increase speed.


What are factors that can affect speed?

Thrust and friction in the environment. Ignoring friction, the two chief factors are the force of acceleration and mass, which determines how much force is required to achieve a given speed (more technically the change of velocity: speed in a given direction).


What are two factors that can affect speed?

Thrust and friction in the environment. Ignoring friction, the two chief factors are the force of acceleration and mass, which determines how much force is required to achieve a given speed (more technically the change of velocity: speed in a given direction).


Is friction a greater force when motion is faster?

Friction is not affected by the speed of motion. The force of friction remains constant regardless of the speed of the objects in contact.


How do the laws of motoin affect curling?

Friction can slow down a rock and the speed of the rock depends on the force you exert.


Does moving faster increase friction?

No, increasing speed does not directly increase friction. Friction is primarily influenced by the nature of the surfaces in contact and the force pressing them together. However, increasing speed can sometimes generate more heat due to friction, which could in turn affect the friction between surfaces.


How does weight affect speed?

Weight can affect speed because a heavier object requires more force to move it, which can slow it down. This is due to the increased inertia and friction that comes with greater weight.


Effect of speed on the force of friction?

Friction is independent of speed once an object is moving since faster does not mean more friction.


What affects the speed of a rolling ball?

The factors that affect the speed of a rolling ball include the force applied to the ball, the incline or surface it is rolling on, the mass and size of the ball, and the presence of friction. A greater force, steeper incline, lighter ball, and lower friction will generally result in a faster rolling speed.


What 3 factors affect the force of friction?

The three factors that affect the force of friction are the weight of the object, the roughness of the surfaces in contact, and the normal force pressing the surfaces together.


What properties affect the force of friction?

The nature of the surface. A measure of this is the coefficient of friction.
