Can a frictionless surface exert normal force?

No, a frictionless surface cannot exert a normal force because the normal force is a force exerted perpendicular to the contact surface and is necessary to counteract the force of gravity or any other downward force. Without friction, there is no need for a normal force to counteract any horizontal force component.


What is the amount of force needed to keep a ball moving that has been launched into frictionless space?

In the vacuum of frictionless space, no force is needed to keep the ball moving. According to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Therefore, once the ball is launched into frictionless space, it will continue moving indefinitely.


What happens when three blocks are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface?

When three blocks are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface, they will remain stationary and not move because there is no force acting on them to cause them to move.


Can you walk on a friction less floor why?

No. There would be no force being applied to the floor by your foot (friction) so there would be no force from the floor in response pushing your foot forward. According to newton's 3rd law. (every action has an equal and opposite reaction)No I can't.. No one can.


What happens when three blocks are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface?

When three blocks are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface, they will remain stationary unless an external force is applied to them. If a force is applied to one of the blocks, it will move in the direction of the force, while the other blocks will remain stationary due to the absence of friction.

Is there any frictionless train?

No there is always a resistive force such as air resistance. The closest frictionless train is the japanese magnetic train which has no friction on the track.


Which force is responsible for holding a car in a frictionless banked curve?

The Horizontal Component of the normal force.


A basketball rolls to a stop along a gym floor without anyone touching it why did this occur?

The ball rolled to a stop because the opposing force of friction stopped the ball. If the floor had been frictionless, it would have continued without stopping or even slowing.

How do you escape from a frictionless room?

If you are in a frictionless room, you can't push off of anything to exert enough force to move away. However, if you have a bottle of compressed gas or liquid, the force of the escaping gas from the container will exert a reaction force to push you where you need to go. If you are near a wall, you can push off of that.


What will happen if you apply a force on top of a disk kept on a frictionless surface?

The disc will slow down as a result of the friction applied by the force.
