Lesson 9 Flashcards
generated between contacting surfaces
are called friction forces
Tangential forces
Whenever a tendency exists for one contacting surface to slide along another surface, the friction forces developed are always in a direction to__________ this tendency.
oppose
are present throughout nature and exist in
all machines no matter how accurately constructed or carefully
lubricated.
Friction forces
A machine or process in which friction is small
enough to be neglected is said to be___________.
ideal
When friction must be taken into account, the machine or process is termed________.
real
In all cases where there is sliding motion between parts, the friction forces result in a__________ which is dissipated in the form of heat.
loss of energy
is another effect of friction.
wear
occurs when the unlubricated surfaces of two solids are in contact under a condition of sliding or a tendency to slide.
Dry Friction
Dry Friction is also called___________
Coulomb friction
motion. This type of friction is also called Coulomb friction. The principles of dry or Coulomb friction were developed largely from the experiments of Coulomb in
1781 and from the work of Morin from 1831 to 1834.
Static friction has___________.
no motion
Kinetic friction has_________.
motion
the point of slippage or impending motion is called the range of static friction, and in this range the value of the friction force is determined by the________________.
equations of equilibrium
Static Friction equation describes only the
____________________of the static friction force and not any lesser value.
limiting or maximum value
this force is usually somewhat less than the maximum static friction force.
Kinetic friction
