Which force slows down a ball when it moves?
The force of friction, which is the normal force (weight) multiplied by the coefficient of friction (how rough the carpet is).
What force stops motion?
An immovable concrete wall works pretty good for me.Theoretically it is said that Zero Kelvin (absolute zero) is the temperature at which no movement of particles/molecules is possible. Zero Kelvin in Celsius is -273.15 degrees. In Fahrenheit it is -459.67 degrees.
Why is it difficult to walk on a slippery floor?
There may not be enough friction between your feet and the floor. You need friction to be able to exert a force against the floor, to balance yourself and move in the direction you desire.
Friction is an example of what force?
which following is an exmpale of the force of friction
What are the factors that determine the friction force between two sliding objects?
The normal force between the two objects and the coefficient of friction. Force of friction = normal force x coefficient of friction.
Why is friction a force?
Friction is considered a force because it acts on an item and causes changes, which is what a force is. Nothing would happen if the item was in an area where friction was not possible or if friction was where an object was not since they need each other to exert external effort.
Why do you slide on a slippery floor?
There may not be enough friction between your feet and the floor. You need friction to be able to exert a force against the floor, to balance yourself and move in the direction you desire.

Which is the larger the kinetic friction force or the statical friction force?
Statical friction
Why is it difficult to walk on a slippery floor?
There may not be enough friction between your feet and the floor. You need friction to be able to exert a force against the floor, to balance yourself and move in the direction you desire.
Is friction a natural force?
friction is a natural force
What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.
What are the consequences of friction?
Friction requires that forces be greater to move an object, but friction also makes it possible for an object to stop moving without an external applied force. Remember, friction ALWAYS opposes motion.
Friction is an example of what force?
which following is an exmpale of the force of friction
Is there a force that can go against friction?
No. Friction can only slow an object down. If friction were imparting a force greater than that of the applied forces, then friction in and of itself would actually be causing the object to move, which does not happen.
What are the factors that determine the friction force between two sliding objects?
The normal force between the two objects and the coefficient of friction. Force of friction = normal force x coefficient of friction.
