In a simple screw jack, the pitch of the screw is 9 mm and length of the handle operating the screw is 45 cm. The velocity ratio of the system is
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
All of these
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
