FRICTION Friction is necessary for walking due to the following reason‚ As per Newton’s third law of motion‚ (every action has an equal and opposite reaction) we can walk if and only if the ground we are walking on push our feet back with a force. Now‚ as per the third law the ground would definitely push our feet back but if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall. If there was no

For an object pulled or pushed horizontally‚ the normal force - N - is simply the weight: N = m g (2) where m = mass of the object (kg‚ slugs) g = acceleration of gravity (9.81 m/s2‚ 32 ft/s2) Frictional Coefficients for some Common Materials and Materials Combinations Materials and Material Combinations Static Frictional Coefficient - μs Clean and Dry Surfaces Lubricated and Greasy Surfaces Aluminum Aluminum 1.05 - 1.35 0.3 Aluminum- bronze Steel 0.45 Aluminum Mild Steel 0.61 Brake material

Friction Definition: Friction is the force resisting the relative lateral (tangential) motion of solid surfaces‚ fluid layers‚ or material elements in contact. Force of friction:- Friction is a force that is created whenever two surfaces move or try to move across each other. • Friction always opposes the motion or attempted motion of one surface across another surface. • Friction is dependant on the texture of both surfaces. • Friction is also dependant on the amount of contact force pushing

experiment is to study the friction loss along a pipe. In this experiment‚ water and mercury have been used to demonstrate the law of resistance with different types of flow which are laminar and turbulent flow. The variation of head loss will be obtained and hence determined the Reynold numbers and friction factor. In the end of the experiment‚ the law of resistance which is the relationship between i and u will be determined and hence established the critical R and friction factor. 1.0 Introduction

These false images can either be externally imposed or internally fabricated. In either case‚ one must have the courage to look through this ignorance so that ones true self can be exposed. After reading Mirrors it was obvious that‚ Lucy Grealy cared what others thought about her physical appearance. In time‚ however

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces‚ fluid layers‚ and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction resists relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact. Dry friction is subdivided into static friction ("stiction") between non-moving surfaces‚ and kinetic friction between moving surfaces. Fluid friction describes the friction between layers of a viscous fluid that are moving relative to each other.[1][2]

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine: the coefficient of friction between a rubber stopper and a wooden ramp the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp The design of this experiment was done by placing a rubber stopper / wooden block onto a wooden ramp and tilting the ramp at a certain degree to cause the stopper / block to move. The measurements of the vertical distance
