Friction is a force that opposes the motion of an object. In the context of thrust, friction between the object and its surrounding surfaces can reduce the efficiency of the thrust by creating drag or resistance. Minimizing friction can help increase the effectiveness of thrust in moving an object.

How does a styrofoam relate to friction?

Styrofoam has a low coefficient of friction, meaning it is very smooth and produces little resistance when in contact with other surfaces. This low friction coefficient allows styrofoam to slide easily across surfaces.


What forces act on a balloon car?

The main forces acting on a balloon car are the thrust force generated by the air escaping from the balloon, the friction force between the wheels and the surface, and air resistance. The thrust force propels the car forward, while friction helps transfer this force to the ground and air resistance acts against the car's motion. Additional forces may include gravity and normal force.


Forces acting on a car?

support, gravity, thrust (from the engine), friction (from the road) and drag (from the air) however drag and friction are often thought of to be the same thing. whether you include both or one is up to you. If you choose just one, use friction


How are thrust and velocity related?

Thrust is a force that propels an object forward, while velocity is the speed and direction of that object's motion. In general, an increase in thrust will result in an increase in velocity, assuming other factors like friction and drag remain constant. This relationship is governed by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it.

Is the thrust force equal to friction force?

Yes they are equal because they are both forces and when the thrust of planes (for example) are high in the air, the thrust pulls the plane forward. While the friction force pushes the plane forward. Think of it as someone pushing you towards something that you don't want to go into, that is the same as thrust and friction forces because the thrust is pushing you forward and the friction force is the balance of it all.


How does an airplane loose thrust when it lands?

ground. or friction. or both...


Does a aircraft require thrust?

In order to move, that airplane must generate enough thrust to counteract friction and air resistance.

How does physics relate to friction?

physics explain what needs to exist or happen to cause friction and so provide ways to measure (control) frictions.


What makes homemade rockets launch into the air?

The thrust of what is propelling it upwards. The forces of thrust and lift once it is going must counteract gravity and friction. Which in homemade rockets it does for a while... but it eventually falls to earth.


What forces are acting on the spaceship as it leaves the earth?

Thrust, which is propelling the spaceship upward, Gravity,which pulls the spaceship down, and must be overcomed by Thrust, Friction, from the air that wants to slow the spaceship down, and which also must be overcome, and Lift, which is the response from thrust and what keeps the spaceship airborne.

Thrust bearing used in most radial engines?

Yes it is. They use deep groove bearings in most radial engines. These types best for reducing friction while carrying both thrust and radial loads
