Which is usually greater for a pair of surfaces, the coefficient of static friction or the coefficient of sliding friction? why

Physics

lorasvet [3.4K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation :

Static friction is the frictional force between two objects that are at rest. While sliding friction is the frictional force between two objects in contact and are sliding w.r.t each other.

Static friction is usually greater than sliding friction because in static friction the contact forces is more and the interlocking between objects is tight as compared to sliding friction.

What is the reaction force of the table with a weight of 558N
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: reaction force = -558N

Explanation:

w = f = 558N

since action force and reaction force are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction,

reaction force = -(f)

reaction force = -558N

if that helps.

A wagon wheel consists of 8 spokes of uniform diamter, each of mass m, and length L. The outer ring has a mass m rin. What is th
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r)

Explanation:

m = Mass of each rod

L = Length of rod = Radius of ring

m_r = Mass of ring

Moment of inertia of a spoke

\dfrac{mL^2}{3}

For 8 spokes

8\dfrac{mL^2}{3}

Moment of inertia of ring

m_rL^2

Total moment of inertia

8\dfrac{mL^2}{3}+m_rL^2\\\Rightarrow L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r)

The moment of inertia of the wheel through an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the ring is L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r).

A block of mass m is pushed a horizontal distance D from position A to position B, along a horizontal plane with friction coeffi
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The total work done by friction is -2 · μ · m · g · D

Explanation:

Hi there!

The work done by a force is calculated as follows:

W = F · d · cos θ

Where:

W = work.

F = force that does the work.

d = displacement.

θ = angle between the displacement and the force.

If the force is horizontal, as in this case, cos θ = 1

The friction force is calculated as follows:

Ffr = μ · m · g

Where:

μ = friction coefficient.

m = mass of the object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

Then, in this case, the work done by friction when pushing the block from A to B will be:

W AB = -Ffr · D

W AB = - μ · m · g · D

Notice that the friction force is negative because it is opposite to the pushing force P.

When the block is pushed from B to A, the work done by friction will be:

W BA = Ffr · (-D)

W BA = -μ · m · g · D

Now, the displacement is negative and the friction force is positive (in the opposite direction to -P).

The total work done by friction will be:

W AB + W BA = - μ · m · g · D  - μ · m · g · D  = -2 μ · m · g · D
