If I understand the question correctly: It is actually ill-posed. The frictions you are refering to are dynamic (sliding) and static (starting). I think you will find that static friction is always harder to over come than dynamic friction, not vice-versa.

For any two materials the force required to overcome sliding friction is always larger than the force required to overcome starting friction?

This statement is not always true. The force required to overcome starting friction can sometimes be larger than the force required to overcome sliding friction due to factors like surface roughness, adhesion, and lubrication. It depends on the specific properties of the materials and the conditions under which they are in contact.


Difference between starting friction and sliding fricition?

Starting friction is the force required to overcome the initial static friction and get an object moving, while sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object already in motion. Starting friction is typically higher than sliding friction.


What factors contribute to the starting friction experienced by a moving object?

The factors that contribute to the starting friction experienced by a moving object include the roughness of the surfaces in contact, the weight of the object, and the force needed to overcome static friction.


The force needed to overcome static friction is usually lass than that needed to overcome kinetic friction?

Yes, that is correct. It generally requires more force to overcome kinetic friction (friction between moving surfaces) than static friction (friction between stationary surfaces). Once an object is in motion, the frictional force decreases, making it easier to keep the object moving compared to starting it from rest.


Why is it harder to start movement than it is to keep something moving?

Starting movement requires overcoming static friction, which can be higher than kinetic friction. Once an object is in motion, it only needs to overcome kinetic friction, which is typically lower. Additionally, inertia requires a greater force to overcome at the beginning of movement compared to maintaining movement.

What accounts for the difference between starting friction and sliding friction?

Starting friction (also known as static friction) occurs when an object is stationary and resists being set in motion, while sliding friction (also known as kinetic friction) occurs when an object is already in motion and resists movement. The difference between the two types of friction is due to the static friction being stronger than kinetic friction. Static friction can be overcome by an external force to initiate motion, while kinetic friction opposes the motion of an object already in motion.


Is static friction the same as starting friction?

Yes, look at "what is static friction?" Static friction is also known as starting friction.


How much Torque is required to start the motor?

The torque required to start a motor depends on several factors, including the motor type, its size, load conditions, and friction in the system. Generally, the starting torque must overcome the static friction and inertia of the rotor and any connected load. For precise calculations, one would typically refer to the motor's specifications or perform a detailed analysis of the system's dynamics. If you have specific motor parameters, I can help estimate the required torque.


Why is it more difficult to slide a crate starting from rest than it is to keep moving once it is sliding?

It is more difficult to slide a crate starting from rest because static friction exists between the crate and the surface, requiring a greater force to overcome. Once the crate is already sliding, kinetic friction is less than static friction, making it easier to keep moving with a lower force.


What starting materials do cells need for cellular respiration?

Cells need glucose and oxygen as starting materials for cellular respiration. Glucose is the primary source of energy, while oxygen is required as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain to generate ATP.
