How important is frictional force in walking?
Try walking on slick ice.
When a person walks on a rough surface the frictional force exerted by the surface on the person is opposite to the direction of the motion?
Not if he picks up his feet while walking, only if he scuffs and slides his feet.
How would the life of human beings be if there was no frictional force?
You would not be able to walk. Walking is the friction of your shoe againjst the ground. Without friction, you would not go anywhere. A good example, all though not completely frictionless, is ice. Walking on clean, clear ice is very hard because of the lack of friction.
What are the four potential dangers drivers encounter in a work zone?
1)small lanes. 2.) a very closed in area around other drivers. 3.)all the construction workers walking around on the road. 4.) Loud and distracting sounds to the driver.
Why does friction increase as speed increases using particles?
The faster you go, the more air you have bashing into your surface. Imagine the molecules comprising air were the size of basket-balls. at walking speed, you'd only have 5 or 6 basket balls hitting you in the face every minute or so and they'd only hit you at walking pace. When you move up to running speed, you suddenly have 15 or so basket balls hitting you in the face every minute at running pace. Riding on a bicycle, you have between 30 and 40 basket balls hitting you in the face every minute at a very high speed. So the faster you go, the more basket balls you have hitting you at a higher speed. These two factors multiply together to give the friction force which increases as a square factor of your speed, (i.e. increase speed by 2, you have 2x the basketballs hitting you 2x as fast which equals 2x2 = 4 times the friction force). I hope this explanation is adequate. Cheers. by michelle obispo

What is an example of favorable?
One of the most important frictional forces to humans is the static frictional force that the ground exerts on a body. Without this force, walking would be impossible, cars would go nowhere.

Why is jay walking illegal?
Jay walking is illegal because it is easier to prevent people from getting hit by cars if people know where they are supposed to be crossing rather than them just crossing whenever.
