APPLICATION OF FRICTIONAL

FORCE

SH.EFFASH.EFFA

LEARNING OUTCOMES:At the end of this lesson, students will

be able to:• Explain with examples the existance of

frictional force.• State the direction of frictional force.• Carry out an experiment (simulation) to show

how different types of surfaces affect frictional force.

• Explain the advantages and disadvantages of friction.

What is Friction?

SH.EFFASH.EFFA

• Friction is a force between two surfaces that are sliding and they must in contact with each other.• Examples: – The tyre of the lorry

is in contact with the road.

SH.EFFASH.EFFA

• Friction always works in the opposite direction from the direction of the moving object.

• Can slows a moving

object down Moving

Friction depends on…Roughness of the surfacesForce that objects are being

pressed one against the other

or Weights of the objects

Advantages of friction

Prevents from slipping while walking

Stops the car from moving

Friction produces heat.

Friction wears out the rubbing surfaces.

Friction produces noise.
