Friction
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what is friction | a force that opposes motion between 2 surfaces that are in contact |
| what is static friction | when a force is applied to an object but does not cause the object to move |
| what is sliding friction | friction between 2 things that are moving |
| what s rolling friction | friction between a rolling object and the object it rolls on |
| kinetic friction | friction applied to a moving object |
| kinetic force is always LESS than static friction | molecular forces form on stationary object friction depends on 2 surfaces involved |
