Q
Q: In which scenario would the frictional force be zero?
Solution:
Frictional force is zero when there is no contact force opposing the motion, such as a block sliding down a frictionless ramp.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what friction is. Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.
Step 2: Identify when friction occurs. Friction happens when two objects touch each other.
Step 3: Recognize that friction can be zero. Friction is zero when there is no contact force between the objects.
Step 4: Consider an example. Imagine a block sliding down a ramp that is perfectly smooth (frictionless).
Step 5: Conclude that in this example, there is no friction because the block is not touching anything that creates resistance.
