The co-efficient of friction (μ) defined as the ratio of frictional force (F) and normal force (N) i.e. reaction force
So, μ = F / N
There are two types of friction co-efficient one is for static friction and another is for kinetic friction.
When friction acts on an object which is at rest is known as static friction. Due to certain amount of applied force, the object is about to move from the rest, is equal to the static force of friction (Fs).
So, co-efficient of static friction μs = Fs / N
If the externally applied force (F) is equal to the force of kinetic friction, (Fk) then the object moves at a constant velocity, and the coefficient of friction involved is called the coefficient of kinetic friction, (μk)
So, co-efficient of kinatic friction μK = FK / N
Horizontal Surface Method is an experiment to determine the values of friction co-efficient:
Refer Fig. 1, it is clear that Object of mass M has a tendency to move to the right because of F = mg. Fis resisted by the friction force Fk. If m is heavy enough to slide M to the right at constant velocity, then F = Fk . At a constant velocity of M to the right, we may write:
μ k= (Fk / N ) = (F / w) or, μ k = mg / Mg , or, μ k = m / M .
This means that the ratio m/M gives us a measure of μk.
Using pictures and/or diagrams, describe in detail the methodology you would use to determine experimentally the...
Risk management in Information Security today Everyday information security professionals are bombarded with marketing messages around risk and threat management, fostering an environment in which objectives seem clear: manage risk, manage threat, stop attacks, identify attackers. These objectives aren't wrong, but they are fundamentally misleading.In this session we'll examine the state of the information security industry in order to understand how the current climate fails to address the true needs of the business. We'll use those lessons as a foundation...
