Question

Come up with answers to the following scenarios

a. Describe something that you do on a regular basis where friction slows you down (Use a different example than the ones in the lesson).
b. Describe two examples (different from the ones in the lesson) in which you have noticed friction creating thermal energy
c. Describe two examples of activities that you do where you depend on friction and would not be able to do them without friction. Please use
different examples than the lesson

Answer 1

a. -For example, when you go to the supermarket with your parents and they let you drive the cart. You step on the back and push off which lets you get far in the isle, but in a bit you start slowing down

and eventually stop at all.

b. -First, when a car is driving the wheels meet friction all the time, as that happens the wheels get a bit hot.

-Second, when you are cold you rub your hands together fast until they are warm.

c.-First, you wouldn't be able to land an airplane correctly and it would be very, very hard to stop it from moving, as well as the car .

-We wouldn't be able to ice skate, we wouldn’t be able to slow down and turn normally.
