Friction between the balls in Newton's Cradle can dampen the energy transfer between them, causing the balls to eventually stop swinging. This frictional force can also cause the balls to lose momentum with each collision, affecting the efficiency of the energy transfer through the system.
What else can I help you with?
Does the Newtons cradle keep swinging forever?
No, Newton's cradle will eventually come to a stop due to a loss of energy from factors like air resistance and friction. The initial swinging motion will gradually dissipate as energy is transferred to the surrounding environment.
What are the units for friction force?
The units for friction force are typically in newtons (N) in the International System of Units (SI).
What is the formula for Coefficient of friction?
(Static coefficient of friction) Cf = horizontal force (newtons) required to overcome static resistance / vertical force (newtons) due to objects mass * acceleration due to gravity. Note: Moving friction coefficient is generally less.
What is Laws of Dynamic friction?
The laws of dynamic friction describe the relationship between the force required to overcome friction between two surfaces in motion and the normal force acting perpendicular to those surfaces. These laws state that the force of friction is proportional to the normal force and is independent of the surface area in contact, while the coefficient of friction relates the force of friction to the normal force.
Why is there 10 newtons of force when a student pushes a tree and it does not move?
When a student pushes a tree and it does not move, the force applied by the student (10 newtons in this case) is equal and opposite to the static friction force between the tree and the ground. This static friction force prevents the tree from moving.
Does the Newtons cradle keep swinging forever?
No, Newton's cradle will eventually come to a stop due to a loss of energy from factors like air resistance and friction. The initial swinging motion will gradually dissipate as energy is transferred to the surrounding environment.
What unit do you measure friction in?
you measure friction in Newtons
Are there picture of Isaac Newton inventions?
yes, like the newtons cradle
How is the law of conseervation of energy illustrated by newtons cradle?
Newton's cradle conserves energy but converts it from potential to kinetic energy and vice versa.
What are the units for friction force?
The units for friction force are typically in newtons (N) in the International System of Units (SI).
Where can I find the steel balls item that are attached to a string and they swing from an aframe type stand?
Google Newtons Cradle
What is the metric unit for friction?
A friction is a force, so it would be measured in newtons. The coefficient of friction, on the other hand, is a ratio between two forces, so it is dimensionless.
What are the units that friction is measured in?
The coefficient of friction is dimensionless; it has no units.
What is the difference between newton and friction?
newtons are a measurement of mass and friction is the result of two surfaces rubbing together to usually create heat
What is the formula for Coefficient of friction?
(Static coefficient of friction) Cf = horizontal force (newtons) required to overcome static resistance / vertical force (newtons) due to objects mass * acceleration due to gravity. Note: Moving friction coefficient is generally less.

Why was Isaac newton famous for math?
i am not positive but i think he made the formula for finding how many degrees is in a shape he also made the Newtons Cradle in sceince
