FRICTION
2
FRICTION A force that resists motion (or tendency to move) between two objects in contact
3
The materials in contact The normal force
Depends on 2 factors The materials in contact The normal force
4
Draw in the friction vector.
Ff

6
Static friction force A force is applied but the object doesn’t move
No motion = net force = 0 The friction force is in the opposite direction of the applied force Size of friction _______ the applied force
7
Static Friction FN Ff FA FW Net Force = Zero
8
Kinetic friction force
Kinetic means : force is applied and the object moves but friction slows it down The friction force is in opposite direction to the motion The friction force is smaller than the applied force
9
Kinetic Friction Accelerating
FN Ff FA FW Net Force ≠ Zero
10
Kinetic Friction Constant Velocity
FN Ff FA FW Net Force = Zero
11
on a horizontal surface
Friction equation Ff = μ FN FN =FW on a horizontal surface
12
Coefficients of Friction
μs = coefficient of static friction μk = coefficient of kinetic friction
13
Air Resistance When an object moves through air it runs into air molecules. It is a type of friction because it resists the motion of the object.
14
A special situation Terminal velocity is when
The object stops accelerating and travels at constant velocity. FAir = FW and Fnet = 0
