1 3 What You Will Learn The magnitude of the force of can vary. Kinetic is a force that, when unbalanced, can change the velocity of a moving object. Static balances an applied force and can prevent motion. Friction can be both harmful and helpful. Why It Matters By controlling, you can make tasks easier. Vocabulary Graphic Organizer In your Science Journal, create a Cause-and-Effect Map about. (FRIK shuhn) a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in contact Friction: A Force That Opposes Motion Key Concept Friction is a force that can balance other forces to prevent motion. Friction is also a force that, when unbalanced, can change the velocity of an object. While playing ball, your friend throws the ball out of your reach. Rather than running after the ball, you walk after it. You know that the ball will slow down and stop. An unbalanced force is needed to change the velocity of objects. So, what force is stopping the ball? The ball is stopped by. Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching. Friction can cause a moving object to slow down and stop. The Source of Friction The surface of any object is rough. Even surfaces that feel smooth are covered with microscopic hills and valleys. When two surfaces are touching, the hills and valleys of one surface stick to the hills and valleys of the other surface, as shown in Figure 1. This contact causes. The magnitude of between two surfaces depends on many factors. One factor is the force pushing the surfaces together. Another factor is the materials that make up the surfaces. The Effect of Force on Friction If the force pushing surfaces together increases, the hills and valleys of the surfaces come into closer contact. This close contact increases the between the surfaces. Objects that weigh less exert less downward force than objects that weigh more do, as Figure 2 shows. But the amount of surface touching another surface does not affect the amount of. 8.2.a Students know a force has both direction and magnitude. 8.2.c Students know when the forces on an object are balanced, the motion of the object does not change. 8.2.d Students know how to identify separately the two or more forces that are acting on a single static object, including gravity, elastic forces due to tension or compression in matter, and. 8.2.e Students know that when the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will change its velocity (that is, it will speed up, slow down, or change direction). Figure 1 When the hills and valleys of one surface stick to the hills and valleys of another surface, is created. 350 Chapter 12 Matter in Motion
2 Figure 2 Force and Friction a The between the heavier book and the table is greater than the between the lighter book and the table. A harder push is needed to move the heavier book. b Turning a book on its edge does not change the amount of between the table and the book. Force acting on the book Force of Force acting on the book Force of Force acting on the book Force of The Effect of Material on Friction The material that makes up a surface affects the magnitude of. For example, is usually greater between materials that have rough surfaces than it is between materials that have smooth surfaces. A table-tennis ball rolling on carpet slows down and stops because of between the ball and the carpet. The amount of is large because the carpet has a rough surface. But a table-tennis ball rolling on a wood floor rolls for a long time before stopping. The ball keeps rolling because the wood floor has a smooth surface. So, the amount of between the ball and the floor is small. and stop? 8.2.e Why does a ball rolling on a carpet slow down Quick Lab Feeling Friction 1. Place a block of wood with a hook on a table. Attach a spring scale to the hook. 2. Gently pull the spring scale horizontally, and record the amount of force needed to keep the block moving at a constant speed. This amount is equal to the amount of. 3. Change the surface of the table by spreading a piece of fabric on the table. Repeat step Change the surface of the table again by using a different material. Repeat step What factor caused the amount of to differ in each trial? 6. In what direction did the force of act? How do you know? 8.2.a 20 min Section 3 Friction: A Force That Opposes Motion 351
3 Types of Friction There are two types of. The observed when you slide books across a tabletop is kinetic. The other type of is static. You observe static when you push on a piece of furniture that you cannot move. Comparing Friction Ask an adult at home to sit on the floor. Try to push the adult across the room. Next, ask the adult to sit on a chair that has wheels and to keep his or her feet off the floor. Try pushing the adult and the chair across the room. If you do not have a chair that has wheels, try pushing the adult on different kinds of flooring. In your Science Journal, explain why there was a difference between the two trials. Kinetic Friction The word kinetic means moving. So, kinetic is between moving surfaces. The amount of kinetic between two surfaces depends in part on how the surfaces move. Surfaces can slide past each other. Or a surface can roll over another surface. Often, the force of sliding kinetic is greater than the force of rolling kinetic. Thus, things on wheels are often easier to move than things that must be slid along the floor, as Figure 3 shows. Kinetic is very useful in everyday life. You use sliding kinetic when you apply the brakes on a bicycle and when you write with a pencil. Rolling kinetic is an important part of almost all means of transportation. Anything that has wheels bicycles, in-line skates, cars, trains, and planes uses rolling kinetic. Kinetic is often an unbalanced force acting on moving objects. Thus, kinetic often changes the velocity of a moving object by slowing down the object. Figure 3 Comparing Kinetic Friction a Moving a heavy piece of furniture in your room can be difficult because the force of sliding kinetic is large. b Moving a heavy piece of furniture is easier if you put it on wheels. The force of rolling kinetic is smaller and easier to overcome. 352 Chapter 12 Matter in Motion
4 Figure 4 Static Friction Block Force applied Static Force applied Kinetic Table a There is no between the block and the table when no force is applied to the block. b If a small force (purple arrow) is applied to the block, the block does not move. The force of static (green arrow) balances the force applied. c When the force applied to the block is greater than the force of static, the block starts moving. When the block starts moving, kinetic (green arrow) replaces all of the static and opposes the force applied. Static Friction Often, a force is applied to an object but does not cause the object to move. The object does not move because the force of static is balancing the force applied. Static can be overcome by applying a large enough force. As soon as an object starts moving, static has gone and has been replaced by kinetic. Look at Figure 4 to understand when static affects an object. The middle image in Figure 4 shows that the force of static is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force applied. So, the forces on the object shown are balanced, and the motion of the object does not change. In fact, some static objects do not move because the force of static balances the other forces acting on the object. For example, a ladder leaning against a wall does not move because of static between the ladder and the wall and between the ladder and the ground. Suppose that you push on a heavy desk, but it does not move. What force opposes your push? How do you know that the opposing force balances the force that you exert? 8.2.c, 8.2.d Biographies of Physical Scientists Who made contributions to the understanding of forces? Write a biography of a scientist who studied forces. Go to go.hrw.com, and type in the keyword HY7MOTW. Friction: Harmful and Helpful Friction is both harmful and helpful to you and to the world around you. Friction can cause holes in your socks. Friction by wind and water can cause erosion. On the other hand, between your pencil and your paper is needed for the pencil to leave a mark. Without, you would slip and fall when you tried to walk. Because can be both harmful and helpful, sometimes it should be decreased and sometimes it should be increased. Section 3 Friction: A Force That Opposes Motion 353
5 Ways to Reduce Friction Using lubricants (LOO bri kuhnts) is one way to reduce. Lubricants are substances that are put on surfaces to reduce the between the surfaces. Some examples of lubricants are motor oil, wax, and grease. Lubricants are usually liquids, but they can be solids or gases. An example of a gas lubricant is the air that comes out of the tiny holes on an air-hockey table. Figure 5 shows one use of a lubricant. Friction can also be reduced by switching from sliding kinetic to rolling kinetic. Ball bearings placed between the wheels and axles of in-line skates and bicycles make the wheels turn more easily by reducing. Another way to reduce the magnitude of is to smooth surfaces that rub against each other. For example, rough wood on a park bench can snag your clothes or scratch your skin because there is a large amount of between you and the bench. Rubbing the bench with sandpaper makes the bench smoother. As a result, the between you and the bench is less. So, the bench will no longer snag your clothes or scratch you. 8.2.a How can the magnitude of be reduced? Figure 5 When you work on a bicycle, watch out for the chain! You may get dirty from the grease or oil that keeps the chain moving freely. Without this lubricant, between the sections of the chain makes riding difficult. 354 Chapter 12
6 Ways to Increase Friction One way to increase is to make surfaces rougher. For example, sand spread on icy roads keeps cars from sliding. Baseball players often wear textured batting gloves to increase the between their hands and the bat. The increased helps stop the bat from flying out of their hands. Another way to increase is to increase the force pushing surfaces together. Suppose that you are sanding a piece of wood. You can sand the wood faster by pressing harder on the sandpaper. Pressing harder increases the force pushing the sandpaper and wood together. So, the between the sandpaper and wood increases. Figure 6 shows another example of pushing on something to increase. Figure 6 No one likes cleaning dirty pans. To get this job done quickly, press down with the scrubber to increase. Review 8.2.a, 8.2.c, 8.2.d, 8.2.e Summary Friction is a force that acts in a direction opposite to the direction of motion. Factors that affect the magnitude of include the force pushing the surfaces together and the materials that make up the surfaces. Kinetic is a force that, when unbalanced, can change the velocity of a moving object. Static can balance other forces and can prevent changes in motion. Friction can be helpful or harmful. 1 Write an original definition for. 2 Applying Kinetic acts on a baseball player sliding into first base. Will the player s velocity change? Explain your answer in terms of unbalanced forces. 3 Listing Name three common lubricants. 4 Summarizing Describe two factors that affect the magnitude of between two surfaces that are touching. 5 Identifying List the two types of, and give an example of each. 6 Justifying How do you know that forces are balanced when static acts on an object? 7 Concluding Friction opposes motion. Describe how the direction of the force of kinetic is related to the direction of an object s motion. 8 Applying Concepts Name two ways that is harmful and two ways that is helpful when you are riding a bicycle. 9 Making Inferences Describe a situation in which static is useful.
