Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
The displacement of a particle which moves along a straight line is given by S = 4t³ + 3t²- 10 where ‘S’ is in meters and t is in seconds. The time taken by the particle to acquire a velocity of 18 m/sec from rest, is
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
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
