What are some situations where friction is good and some some where friction is bad?
In situations where you want to create heat or dissipate kinetic energy, friction is usually a good thing. Friction when rubbing your hands together creates heat, which you appreciate, and friction between your brake pad and brake disc slows down your car, which is also a good thing. In situations where you want to maintain kinetic energy or minimize heat, friction is usually bad. Air friction slows down a glider, limiting its range, and mechanical friction in a car rolling on a flat surface causes it to stop without the brakes being applied.
How does friction affect stopping distance?
Some of the kinetic energy of a body in motion is used up in overcoming friction, which acts in the direction opposite to that of the motion. The reduction in energy means that the stopping force needs less time to do its work.
When do adolescents apply formal logic?
in all situations. in very few situations. only when encouraged to do so. in some situations but not in others.
How do you calculate linear speed?
Linear speed = change in linear displacement (from some fixed point)/time for that change. [Although this works in all everyday situations, the Theory of Relativity shows that there is no fixed frame of reference and so no fixed point.]

Does the work energy theorem hold if friction acts on an object?
Yes, some work is converted into heat due to the friction.
What are some situations where friction is good and some where friction is bad?
Good: Driving, Walking, Writing and Eating Bad: Heat parts, Wear Things Out, Wastes Energy and Smoking
Is feeling like your being watched a problem?
It depends. Some individuals are just paranoid (having unreasonable fear). Some are attentive to their environment, and are aware of situations that do not appear normal. It becomes a problem when the feeling of being watched interferes with your everyday activities.It depends. Some individuals are just paranoid (having unreasonable fear).

Name some ways that friction can be helpful and some ways it is harmful?
Friction is helpful in situations like when you are standing on a hillside. Static friction between your shoes and the surface are stopping you from slipping. Friction is not helpful in situations like when you are pulling something heavy. Some of the energy you are putting into pulling is going into heat from kinetic friction and making your job more difficult.
What is knowledge if no common sense?
It seems to refer to a person who has a lot of information but who lacks some skill in applying it in everyday situations.
What force would help you slide down a slide?
Gravity? the strength of the floor?
What are some acts of courageous?
Some acts of courage would be: Going for an audition Defending your friends/Family in dangerous situations Standing up to your friends and enemies/ sticking up for your self Stepping in front of a bullet for a loved one Public Speaking

What are some everyday situations where you use multiples of 12?
So there I was, stocking the egg shelves at the grocery, a dozen at a time. I loaded twelve sets of twelve. That was gross...
What direction does friction act in to an object's direction of motion?
Friction will always act in the direction opposite of the relativistic motion of two objects. If object A is moving to the right on object B, then object A will experience the friction to the left. However, object B will be moving to the left on object A and will therefore experience the friction acting towards the right.
