Laws Of Dry Friction! Trivia Questions Quiz
Dry Friction occurs on dry or rough surfaces and with the help of solid objects. It sometimes necessitates the action of humans to generate any type of motion. It is done when we move things around in our new apartment, it is also done in factories where boxes and objects are moved from one area to another. So, what do you know about the laws of dry friction? Take our quiz and find out now.
- 1.How can one define dry friction?
- A.
It's a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of 2 solid surfaces in contact
- B.
It's pressure between the relative lateral motion of 2 solid surfaces in contact
- C.
It's a force that mixes the relative lateral motion of 2 solid surfaces in contact
- D.
It's a force that joins the relative lateral motion of 2 solid surfaces in contact
