Explain various types of friction.
Briefly explain ‘rolling friction.'
Briefly explain the origin of friction. Show that in an inclined plane, the angle of friction is equal to the angle of repose.
A uniform metal chain is placed on a rough table such that one end of the chain hangs down over the edge of the table. When two-thirds of its chain length hangs over the edge the chain start sliding. Then the coefficient of static friction is:
A block of mass 20 kg is sliding on a surface is inclined at an angle of 45° with the horizontal. What will be the acceleration of the block if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.7?
Block A has a mass of 2 kg and block B has 20 kg. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the horizontal surface is 0.1, and B is accelerating towards the right with a = 2 m/s2, then the mass of the block C will be ______.
(g = 10 m/s2)
The coefficient of static friction between a car's tires and a level road is 0.80. If the car is to be stopped in a maximum time of 3.0 s, its speed cannot exceed.
A block of mass 10 kg starts sliding on a surface with an initial velocity of 9.8 ms-1. The coefficient of friction between the surface and bock is 0.5. The distance covered by the block before coming to rest is ______.
[use g = 9.8 ms-2]
There are two inclined surfaces of equal length (L) and same angle of inclination 45° with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. A given body takes 2 times as much time to slide down, on rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) between the object and the rough surface is close to ______.
A horizontal force 10 N is applied to a block A as shown in figure. The mass of blocks A and B are 2 kg and 3 kg, respectively. The blocks slide over a frictionless surface. The force exerted by block A on block B is:
