  2. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    The friction coefficient is an empirical (experimentally measured) structural property that depends only on various aspects of the contacting materials, such as surface roughness. The coefficient of friction is not a function of mass or volume. For instance, a large aluminum block has the same coefficient of friction as a small aluminum block.

  3. List of common physics notations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_physics...

    coefficient of friction: unitless (dynamic) viscosity (also ) pascal second (Pa⋅s) permeability (electromagnetism) henry per meter (H/m) reduced mass: kilogram (kg) Standard gravitational parameter: cubic meter per second squared mu nought Vacuum permeability or the magnetic constant

  4. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstan_equation

    For instance, the factor "153,552,935" (5 turns around a capstan with a coefficient of friction of 0.6) means, in theory, that a newborn baby would be capable of holding (not moving) the weight of two USS Nimitz supercarriers (97,000 tons each, but for the baby it would be only a little more than 1 kg). The large number of turns around the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Fire_(video_game)

    Free Fire Max is an enhanced version of Free Fire that was released in 2021. [ 71 ] [ 72 ] It features improved High-Definition graphics , sound effects , and a 360-degree rotatable lobby. Players can use the same account to play both Free Fire Max and Free Fire , and in-game purchases, costumes, and items are synced between the two games. [ 73 ]

  6. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    In this article, the following conventions and definitions are to be understood: The Reynolds number Re is taken to be Re = V D / ν, where V is the mean velocity of fluid flow, D is the pipe diameter, and where ν is the kinematic viscosity μ / ρ, with μ the fluid's Dynamic viscosity, and ρ the fluid's density.

  7. Stribeck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stribeck_curve

    This may be the reason why the minimum in the coefficient of friction for a liquid-lubricated journal bearing was not discovered by him, but was demonstrated by the graphs of Martens and Stribeck. The graphs plotted by Martens show the coefficient of friction either as a function of pressure, speed or temperature (i.e. viscosity), but not of ...

  8. Wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel

    The coefficient of friction at the interface is usually lower. Example: If a 100 kg object is dragged for 10 m along a surface with the coefficient of friction μ = 0.5, the normal force is 981 N and the work done (required energy) is (work=force x distance) 981 × 0.5 × 10 = 4905 joules. Now give the object 4 wheels.

  9. Polytetrafluoroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

    The coefficient of friction of plastics is usually measured against polished steel. [36] PTFE's coefficient of friction is 0.05 to 0.10, [ 27 ] which is the third-lowest of any known solid material ( aluminium magnesium boride (BAM) being the lowest, with a coefficient of friction of 0.02; diamond-like carbon being second-lowest at 0.05).
