Question

Identify the type of friction acting in each scenario. A surfer rides an ocean wave. A bowling ball travels down a bowling lane. A baseball flies through the air. A hose rests on the edge of a truck.

Answer 1

Explanation;

1. Fluid friction: Friction between the layers of fluid moving relative to each other.It is the force which resist the motion of fluid in itself or any other medium moving through fluid.

• A surfer rides an ocean wave : Fluid friction

• A baseball flies through the air: Fluid friction

2. Rolling friction is the force which the resists the motion of any rolling object.

• A bowling ball travels down a bowling lane : Rolling friction

3. Static friction is the force which the keeps the object at rest.

• A hose rests on the edge of a truck. : Static friction
