DESCRIPTION
FRICTION. Friction - a force that resists the motion of an object. Acts parallel to the surface and opposite the direction of the motion. Dependent on the type of contact surfaces. Independent of contact area. Equal to applied force when object is at rest or traveling at a constant velocity. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

FRICTION
Friction- a force that resists the motion of an object
• Acts parallel to the surface and opposite the direction of the motion.
• Dependent on the type of contact surfaces.• Independent of contact area.• Equal to applied force when object is at rest or
traveling at a constant velocity.
TYPES OF FRICTION
• Static friction(starting friction)- Friction that is produced by surface projections and bonding.
• Kinetic friction(sliding friction)- friction an object has while in motion.
• Rolling friction-one object rolls over another• Air resistance- friction produced by the air
pushing against something in free fall.
FORMULA
Ff = µ FNFf = frictional force (N)
FN = normal force (N)
µ-Coefficient of friction*(µ) Has No Units*
*See reference table*
ExA. A block of wood rests on a wood desktop. If it has a mass of 10kg, what is the minimum force required to move it?
FN = Fg = mg
FN = 10kg(9.81m/s2)
FN = 98.1N
Ff = µ FN = .42(98.1N) = 41.2N
• All forces are balanced if at rest or traveling at a constant velocity.
• The value for static friction is used because its at rest.
Ff= 41.2N FN= 98.1N
F= 41.2N
Fg= 98.1N
exB-If a 60N force is applied to the block, what will be its acceleration?
Fnet = 60N – 41.2N
Fnet = 18.8N
a = Fnet/m = 18.8N/10kg
a = 1.88 m/s2
Ff= 41.2N F = 60N

A worker pulls a 40kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity. If he applies 214N of force along a rope held at 30 degrees with the ground, find Fg , Fp, Fy , Fn , and μ.
Fg = mgF = 40kg(9.81m/s2)Fg =392.4N
Fp = Fa cosθ = Ff
Fp = 214N cos 30Fp = 185.3N
Fy = Fa sin θFy = 214N sin 30Fy = 107N
Fn = Fg – Fy
Fn = 392.4N – 107NFn = 285.4N
μ = Ff / Fn
μ = 185.3N/ 285.4Nμ = 0.65

Fg = mg (always perpendicular to the ground)
Fn = Fg cosθ (perpendicular to the surface)
Fp = Ff ( both are parallel to the surface)
Fp = Fg sinθ
Ex: A 20kg wooden box is sliding down an incline of 30 degrees at a constant velocity. Find
Fg , Fp , Fn and μ.
Fg = m gFg = 20kg(9.81m/s2)Fg = 196N
Fp = Fg sin ѲFp = 196N sin 30Fp= 98N
Fn = Fg cosѲFn= 196N cos 30Fn = 170N
