8th Grade Science Chapter 3 Section 1 Newton's Second Law-Friction

AB
the force that opposes (goes against) the sliding motion of two surfaces that are touching each otherFRICTION
Amount of friction depends on two things:1) KINDS of SURFACES, and 2) FORCES PRESSING THE SURFACES TOGETHER
frictional force that PREVENTS two surfaces from sliding past each otherSTATIC FRICTION
the force that OPPOSES (goes against) the motion of two surfaces sliding past each otherSLIDING FRICTION
frictional force between a rolling object and the surface it rolls onROLLING FRICTION
friction-like force that opposes the motion of objects that move through the airAIR RESISTANCE
when upward air resistance balances out the downward force of gravity and the net force =zeroTERMINAL VELOCITY
Air resistance is in the opposite direction and depends on.....SIZE and SHAPE of the object.
Air resistance causes objects to fall with........DIFFERENT ACCELERATIONS AND SPEEDS.
Feathers and leaves fall more slowly than pennies and apples............BECAUSE OF AIR RESISTANCE
You push a box and it doesn't move. Force of friction is greater than your push.EXAMPLE OF STATIC FRICTION
You and a friend move a box. YOu break the microwelds and box moves. It you stop pushing, box stops.EXAMPLE OF SLIDING FRICTION
Caused when wheel and surface are deformed as wheel rolls over it producing a frictional force while in contact.....t.....EXAMPLE OF ROLLING FRICTION
