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.

Is the force needed to overcome kinetic friction greater than static friction?

No, the force needed to overcome static friction is generally greater than the force needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction occurs when two surfaces are at rest relative to each other, requiring more force to overcome the initial "sticking" friction. Once the surfaces are in motion, kinetic friction occurs and typically requires less force to maintain motion.


True or false the force needed to overcome kinetic friction is useally greater than that needed to overcome static friction?

False. The force needed to overcome static friction is typically greater than that needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction is the resistance to motion when an object is at rest, while kinetic friction is the resistance to motion when an object is already in motion. Static friction requires more force to overcome because it is necessary to break the initial "stickiness" between the surfaces.


True or false the force needed to overcome kenetiic friction is useally greater than that needed to overcome static friction?

False. The force required to overcome static friction is generally higher than the force needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction is the resistance to the initial movement of two objects at rest, while kinetic friction is the resistance to the motion of objects sliding against each other.


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

true


Why is kinetic friction less than static friction?

Kinetic friction is typically less than static friction because the surfaces are already in motion when kinetic friction is acting, so less force is needed to overcome the resistance between the surfaces. In contrast, static friction must be overcome to initiate motion, requiring a greater force.

What is the relationship between the kinetic friction coefficient and the amount of force required to overcome friction between two surfaces in motion?

The kinetic friction coefficient is a measure of the resistance between two surfaces in motion. A higher coefficient means more force is needed to overcome the friction and keep the surfaces moving.


Why is kinetic friction less than the limiting friction?

By my understanding, this is due to the fact that it is easier to keep a moving object in motion than it is to accelerate it from a resting position. When a force is exerted on a stationary object, acceleration relies on that force alone. However, with a moving body, the momentum of the object reduces the force needed to overcome friction.


What magnitude pushing force is needed to keep a box moving at a constant 8 meter per sec if there is a static friction of 5 lb and kinetic friction of 4 lb?

While the box is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, the push only has to overcome the kinetic friction. Whatever the speed is, and whatever the weight of the box is, 4 pounds of push IN THE DIRECTION THE BOX IS MOVING will keep this one going.
