Friction always acts in a direction?
Friction always acts in the direction opposite to the the motion of the object.For example, if a bowling ball rolls to the right, friction would act to the left.Without friction, if you threw a ball, it would keep going forever. Friction slows objects down.
What is impending motion?
I'm pretty sure it means the motion or movement that is going to happen. So, if you apply force in a direction to a box, the impending motion will be sliding or tipping in the direction of force depending on certain coefficients of friction.
What force can cause an object to change its speed direction?
A force that can cause an object to change its speed and direction is known as a centripetal force. This force acts perpendicular to the object's velocity, pulling it towards the center of rotation. Examples include tension in a swinging pendulum or friction on a car going around a curve.
How does force affect the motion and speed of an object?
As Newton's laws state, the greater the force, the more an object will accelerate or slow down. The force in the opposite direction of motion is called friction. So if you have a 3Kg block travelling at 2m/s, with a friction of 1m/s you will need at least 5N to keep it going. The more force you apply, the faster the block will travel, so it accelerates. The less force you apply the more it slows down and eventually stops because the friction is greater than the force applied. An object that travels in a uniform direction at a uniform speed (Newtons 1st law) will continue traveling in the same way and in the same direction (inertia) unless acted upon by a resultant force (friction).
What 2 factors affect friction?
the smoothness othe surface the object is acting on, and direction its going in
What does impending motion mean?
I'm pretty sure it means the motion or movement that is going to happen. So, if you apply force in a direction to a box, the impending motion will be sliding or tipping in the direction of force depending on certain coefficients of friction.
The direction of kinetic friction is always?
against motion For example, if I push a box to the left, kinetic friction is going to the left.
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.
How do you find the net force when the forces are going in the same direction?
You add them together. If there is no other force in the opposite direction it is also recognized as zero.
What is the equation for calculating the force of friction?
The equation for calculating the force of friction is Ffriction = μ * N, where Ffriction is the force of friction, μ is the coefficient of friction between two surfaces, and N is the normal force acting between the surfaces.
When force and motion are going in the same direction is work being done?
Yes, work is being done when force and motion are going in the same direction. Work is defined as the product of force applied in the direction of motion and the distance over which the force is applied. So, when force and motion are in the same direction, work is being done.
2 factors affecting friction?
