How do you know the charges acquired by different objects by friction?

Charges acquired by objects through friction can be studied using the triboelectric effect, which is based on the tendency of certain materials to become either positively or negatively charged when they come into contact with each other and then separate. The triboelectric series lists materials in terms of their ability to gain or lose electrons through friction, indicating which will become positively charged and which will become negatively charged when rubbed together.


What branch of science studies forces?

Physics studies forces, specifically the branch called mechanics. Mechanics focuses on the behavior of objects when subjected to forces and motion. Topics like gravity, friction, and acceleration are studied to understand the interaction of forces in the physical world.

How does a Ticker tape timer compensate friction?

It doesn't. This is a source of experimental error in tickertape experiments. Eg, if you are attempting to measure the acceleration due to gravity (g), a ticker tape experiment with large amounts of friction will yield values of g less than 9.8 m/s2. This is because frictional forces will oppose the motion - which is driven by the force downwards due to gravity. Hence the overall force on the moving object (tickertape included) will be less than the gravitational force, and hence the observed acceleration will be less than that due to gravity (g) - due to the slowing affect of the friction.


What forces slow an object down?

The answer is Gravity. The reason I no is because I have done it in school.Gravity doesn't slow objects down; this is done by friction and air resistance. I know this is because I've studied it in school.________Yes I agree with the second answer. I am in 8th grade, and in 4th grade, we had to make a plastic kart go down a hill, and then STOP!! Our vocabulary consisted of friction, which is the force that stops an object._____Yes I also agree with the second answer, i am studying it right now in college, and we did a project on this, and gravity pulls it down, friction and air resistance try to stop it, so the best asnwer would be friction and air resistance.___
