    The document discusses friction forces on objects. It answers several questions: 1) It describes the motion of an object at different points on a force-time graph, including when it is accelerating, at rest, and moving at constant velocity. 2) It explains that static friction is directly proportional to the normal force on the object. 3) It states that the normal force does not affect the coefficients of static or kinetic friction, which depend on the nature of the surface materials. 4) It ranks different surfaces from highest to lowest coefficients of friction, noting that rougher surfaces generally have higher coefficients than smoother surfaces.

    Questions/Answers :

    1. The graph above is representative of the force applied to an object as it is pulled across
    a horizontal surface Describe the motion of the object for the positions labeled in the
    graph.

    ANSWER:

    The graph shows the trend of force applied on object with respect to time.

    a) At point (A) the object is at rest and the force is increasing to accelerate the object by overcoming the
    static friction force.

    b) At point (B) the object is at rest because applied forceis equal to static force .

    c) The object is moving but less force is required because object is experiencing kinetic force which is
    less than static force.

    d) Now object is moving constantly because constant force is applied.

    Question#2

    1. What relationship exists between the static frictional force and the normal force on an
    object?
    Answer:

    Static friction is proportional to normal force

    F N =mg

    F S=µ S mg

    Put (1) in (2)


    F S=µ S F N

    Both these force act to keep the object at rest .If the force is larger along normal direction then Fs is also
    larger and vice versa.

    Question #3

    Will the normal force on the friction tray affect either the coefficient of static friction or the
    coefficient of kinetic friction? Explain

    Answer:

    No , the normal force doesnot affect them because it depends upon nature of surface.

    Question #4

    Rank the friction trays from highest coefficients of friction to lowest. What is physically
    different with the surfaces with high coefficients versus the surfaces with low coefficients?
    Explain

    Answer:

    Wooden has high coefficient values than plastic and felt has lowest coefficient values .The surface which
    is rough has less coefficient values than which is smooth.

    Question #5

    1. What pattern do you notice between the values of the coefficients of static and kinetic
    friction?

    Answer:

    The values of coefficient static and kinetic friction is increasing form felt, plastic,wooden respectively.

    Question #6

    1. Does the frictional force depend on the surface area of contact (remember that your
    uncertainties are rather large)? Explain how you know.
    Answer:

    No , because it depends only upon coefficient of friction force and normal force.
