Destiny Stuart Partner’s Name: Shanygne Swann Lab Report #2 Title of Experiment: Static Friction and Limiting Equilibrium Brief Theory of Experiment: In limiting equilibrium‚ the sum of the forces on block X and on the hanging masses (load) Y is zero. The load is increased to a value until block X just slides at constant speed when the table is tapped. Tapping the table destroys the limiting equilibrium condition momentarily by altering the balance between tension (T) in the string and the

Static Friction INTRODUCTION When an object is placed on a surface it will remain static unless the resolved component of the force due to gravity acting parallel to the surface exceeds the friction force associated with the static coefficient of friction between surfaces by placing various objects on a surface and tilting the surface until the object begins to slip. By measuring the angle at which the object begins to slip‚ it is then possible to calculate the coefficient of friction between

Static and Kinetic Friction Introduction The amount of friction force between two surfaces in contact depends on the type of the surfaces in contact and the amount of compression between the surfaces. Static friction is the force that is acting against your force before the object begins to move. If you exert a small push on the box‚ the box will not move because static friction is directly opposite to the push. If you apply a greater force than the static friction force‚ the friction increases

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine: the coefficient of friction between a rubber stopper and a wooden ramp the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp The design of this experiment was done by placing a rubber stopper / wooden block onto a wooden ramp and tilting the ramp at a certain degree to cause the stopper / block to move. The measurements of the vertical distance

FRICTION Friction is necessary for walking due to the following reason‚ As per Newton’s third law of motion‚ (every action has an equal and opposite reaction) we can walk if and only if the ground we are walking on push our feet back with a force. Now‚ as per the third law the ground would definitely push our feet back but if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall. If there was no
