When a body just start to move which friction take place?

When a body just starts to move, the friction that is present is static friction. This friction occurs between surfaces that are in contact but not moving relative to each other, resisting the initiation of motion. Once the body overcomes this static friction, it transitions to kinetic friction as it continues to move.


What type of friction holds thingsin place?

It provides static friction, so the object cannot move until the static friction is overcome. For example, if the object at rest had 5N static friction, it would take 5.1N to make the object start moving.


What are some examples of how friction can affect motion?

Take the invention known as a brake. It stops motion. Because friction causes drag, putting friction on one side of a moving object and not on another will cause the object to veer towards the side with friction. That is the principal behind the rudder used in boats.


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!


Is static friction and limiting friction the same?

Limiting friction is the case of static friction where an object is right on the edge of moving, any more force applied to the object will cause it to move. Limiting friction is the largest value that the static friction can take
