Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A disc of mass 4 kg, radius 0.5 m and moment of inertia 3 kg.m² rolls on a horizontal surface so that its center moves with speed 5 m/see. Kinetic energy of the disc is
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
The force of friction always acts in a direction opposite to that in which a body is moving
The magnitude of the kinetic friction bears a constant ratio to the normal reaction between two surfaces. The ratio being slightly less than that in the case of limiting friction
