Friction Calculations

By Mr. Gray

First, let's see what you know

Answer the following questions based on your observations of the Phet simulation and our classroom discussion so far.

Multiple Choice

If an object is moving at constant velocity, the applied force and the force of friction must be

balanced

unbalanced

Multiple Choice

If the force of friction acting on a moving object is greater than the applied force, the object will

speed up

slow down

continue at constant velocity

Multiple Choice

If you are pushing on a heavy object but it isn't moving, you are unable to overcome

static friction

kinetic friction

Multiple Choice

Which object would likely have the highest coefficient of friction?

ice

floor tile

concrete

The would all be equal.

Now let's work on calculations.

Remember, you will get all the necessary equations on a quiz/test. For all calculations, use g = 10 m/s² for the acceleration of gravity. For open-ended questions, you ONLY need to enter the NUMBER part of your answer.

Consider the free-body diagram for an object accelerating across a surface. The object has a mass of 3.91-kg. There is a forward thrust force of 47.8 N. The coefficient of friction between the object and the surface is 0.567. Determine the weight (F_grav). (W=mg)

Open Ended

While decorating her apartment, Julie pushes a 64.7 kg dresser across the floor by applying a 557 N horizontal force. The coefficient of friction between the dresser and the floor is 0.54. Determine the acceleration of the dresser.

Equations: g = 10 m/s² W = m⋅g F_f= μ⋅F_n F_net = m⋅a

Apply what you learned

Determine the coefficients of friction

Set the friction slider to halfway between none and lots. Use any object to determine the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction.
