Most certainly for without friction the braking system would fail no matter how much force was applied.

Which force needs to touch something to have an effect?

The force of friction needs to touch an object to have an effect. Friction occurs when two surfaces are in contact and one surface resists the motion of the other surface. It is this resistance that allows friction to have an effect on objects in contact.


What is the effect of force on friction?

The force acting on an object increases the friction between the object and the surface it is on. As the force increases, the friction force also increases proportionally until it reaches a maximum value, called the limiting friction. This relationship is described by the equation: friction force = coefficient of friction * normal force.


What is the force to stop a car with your breaks?

Friction. It is friction that stops the tyres spinning. In a car, when we apply the brakes, the rubber pads on the disc brake comes in contact with the wheel. This causes friction which results in the braking of car.


Is force needed to stop an object?

Yes, force is required to stop an object that is in motion. This force can come from various sources such as friction, braking mechanisms, or other external factors acting on the object.


How does friction affect the motion of a vehicle in the context of tire surface road conditions including skidding braking force braking distance thinking distance and stopping distance?

Tyre surface: If the tyre is new, it will have surface with depressions which will offer more friction compared to old tyre whose surface-depressions are worn out and it is more flat, so it offers less friction. Therefore, new tyre will have less stopping distance, as force of friction is more. Thinking distance is affected neither by friction between tyre and road, nor by friction between brake and tyre. If road has a wet surface, it has less friction so the vehicle will skid farther, and vice versa. The braking force, i.e, friction between tyre and brake is unaffected by road condition or tyre surface. Hence the distance the vehicle travels WHILE retarding due to "braking force", is not same as stopping distance, because even when the wheels are stopped rotating due to braking force, the car will skid a little distance- this total distance is the stopping distance.

What is the definition for braking force?

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.


Where can friction be usful?

In a braking system

A 1000 kg car brakes with its maximum braking force of 4000n calculate the acceleration of the car when braking?

The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = force / mass. Plugging in the given values: acceleration = 4000 N / 1000 kg = 4 m/s^2. Therefore, the car's acceleration when braking is 4 m/s^2.


What can effect the amount of frictions between two objects?

The two factors are the coeffiecient of friction, and the 'normal' force, which is equal and opposite to the weight of the object. The coefficient of friction is diffeerent for different objects. Friction force = Coeff. X Normal Force
