Get started for freeA person places a hand on a closed book resting on a table and then presses downward while pushing outward. Either the book slides across the table or the hand slides across the book. What determines which event happens? Which type(s) of friction is (are) involved?
Explain how the change in the force of air resistance on a falling body causes it to eventually reach a terminal speed.
Name the two types of friction. Can both types act on the same object at the same time? If so, give an example of such a circumstance.
How does an object move when it is subject to a steady centripetal force? How does it move if that force suddenly disappears?
As a rocket ascends, its acceleration increases even if the net force on it stays constant. Why?
