Question
Answer
Definition of Friction   a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching

Definition of Rolling Friction   The friction that occurs between wheels and the ground; usually less than sliding friction  
🗑
Definition of Force   a push of a pul; all forces have both size and direction  
🗑
Definition of Fluid Friction   the friction between a fluid (liquid or gas) and something else  
🗑
Definition of Net Force   The force that results from combining all the forces exerted on an object  
🗑
Definition of Balanced Force   Forces on an object that cause the net force to be zero; balanced forces do not cause a change in motion or acceleration  
🗑
Definition of Sliding Friction   The friction that occurs when something slides across a surface  
🗑
Definition of Lubricant   A substance applied to surfaces to reduce the friction between them  
🗑
Definition of Unbalanced Force   Forces on an object that cause the net force to be other than zero; unbalanced forces produce a change in motion or acceleration  
🗑
Definition of Static Friction   When a force is applied to an object but does not cause the object to move  
🗑
Definition of Newton   The SI Unit of Force
