this is the maximum force that must be overcome before a body will just start to move over another body.
Back
Fluid Friction
Front
Any friction between an object and the stuff it is moving through
Back
Newton's First Law
Front
Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it
Back
Force
Front
cause of motion or change also a pull or push
Back
Gravity
Front
is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself.
Back
Friction
Front
is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it; it is opposite in direction to the motion of the object
Back
Newton"s Third Law
Front
to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
Back
Terminal Velocity
Front
The maximum speed of a falling object
Back
Weight
Front
is the force caused by the gravitational attraction of the Earth
Back
Rolling friction
Front
is the frictional force which opposes or resists the motion of an object which is rolling through a surface. Rolling friction is also known as rolling resistance or rolling drag.
Back
Sliding Friction
Front
When the surface of one object slides across the surface of another object and some other force is pressing the surfaces together, a drag force is created between the two surfaces that is parallel to the surfaces
Back
Newton's Second Law
Front
The relationship between an object's mass m, its acceleration a, and the applied force F is F = ma.
Back
Air Resistance
Front
Acts in the opposite direction of the moving object
