SUBMATH: Friction Assignment

  1. A large block of ice is being pulled across a frozen lake. The block of ice has a mass of 300 kg. The coefficient of friction between two ice surfaces is small: μk = 0.05. What is the force of friction that is acting on the block of ice?
  2. A man has to push his boat on the shore across the mud to get to the water. The coefficient of friction between the boat and the mud is given by μ = 0.400. If the boat has a mass of 40 kg, calculate the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the boat.
  3. What is the force of friction?
  4. What is the cause of friction?
  5. What is the force responsible for wearing out of bicycles tyres?
