A quantity measured in the C.G.S system of units has dimensions M”2L3 T3/2. What numerical factor would be required to convert the quantity to SI units ?
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
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
The force of friction always acts in a direction opposite to that in which a body is moving
