1. Forces Friction The Lucky Cow The driver of the car applies the brakes to avoid hitting the cow. But how does this cause the car to slow down and stop? The brakes cause the wheels to stop turning and to slide on the road surface. This action produces a force that resists the forward movement of the car. This force is called friction.

3. Forces Friction All objects encounter friction of some sort

4. Forces Friction “How do we calculate the frictional force?”

5. Forces Friction Types of Frictional Forces: 1.Static 2.Kinetic 3.Rolling 4.Fluid

6. Forces Friction Kinetic (Dynamic) Friction It’s the friction encountered in motion. Let's say you had a crate and you wanted to move it somewhere. First, you have to overcome the static friction between the floor and the crate to get it moving. Once you have it moving, you have to keep it moving by overcoming the kinetic (moving) friction - which is always much easier!

7. Forces Friction Friction depends on: 1.The type of surfaces (u) “mu” - coefficient of friction 2.How hard the surfaces are pressed together (F N ) – Normal force

8. Forces Friction   Friction always opposes motion.   The applied force must be greater than the static frictional force to move the block.

9. Forces Friction static frictional force “Mu” coefficient of static friction Normal force maximum force of static friction f s max is the force you must exceed to move the object.

10. Forces Friction Once object moves.  Use  k  f k is constant  There is no “maximum f k.” Kinetic frictional force “Mu” coefficient of Kinetic friction Normal force

11. Forces Friction   The coefficient of static friction is where u s = coefficient F N = normal force f = friction force  The coefficient of friction is dimensionless – no units.  The greater the u s the more force needed to move the object.

12. Forces Friction  The frictional force increases until it reaches a maximum (in this case, 2.5N)  If we push harder still, (say, 2.6N), the block will move.

14. Forces Friction  Static friction, f s  Kinetic friction, f k

15. Forces Friction The object begin to move if the applied force is larger than the max static friction. Here the kinetic friction remains constant no matter how large is the applied force. Here, f l stands for the max static friction and f k is the kinetic friction. It is slightly less than the max static friction.

17. Forces Friction SUMMARY  Friction force, f, is proportional to normal force, F N.  u s and u k are coefficients of friction  Frictional force is opposite the motion  Values of u s and u k depend on surfaces  u s and u k don’t depend on surface area  u s and u k don’t depend on the velocity  Friction is due to the surfaces interacting with each other on the microscopic level (sliding over bumps, chemical bonds)

22. Forces Friction Experience might lead you to believe that if M was very large, say 2000 Kg, m would not budge. This is where friction comes in.

26. Forces Friction If we slide or attempt to slide a body over a surface, the motion is resisted by a bonding between the body and the surface. The resistance is a force called the frictional force, or simply friction. This force is directed along the surface, opposite the direction of the intended motion.
