Questions and Answers

What is the force of friction that occurs when one body is actually sliding over the surface of another body?

  • Sliding friction (correct)
  • Static friction
  • Rolling friction
  • Kinetic friction
  • What is the coefficient of rolling friction a measure of?

  • The velocity of the rolling object
  • The normal reaction between the surfaces
  • The length of the rolling cylinder or wheel
  • The ratio of the frictional force to the normal reaction (correct)
  • Why are heavy loads often transported on carts with wheels?

  • Because rolling friction is inversely proportional to the normal reaction
  • Because rolling friction is directly proportional to the velocity of the rolling object
  • Because rolling friction is smaller than sliding friction (correct)
  • Because rolling friction is larger than sliding friction
  • What is true about the velocity of the point of contact between the rolling wheel and the surface?
