Frictional Forces: Static and Kinetic

from Professor Dave Explains Hosted by Professor Dave Explains

Newton's first law tells us that an object in motion will remain in motion, but we don't really see that on earth, do we? If you throw a ball, or push a hockey puck, these things do eventually stop. Why? To answer this we must learn about static and kinetic friction!Watch the whole Classical Physics playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2Mathematics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMathsGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT
