Best Answer

A cone in which the resultant force exerted by one flat horizontal surface on another must be located when both surfaces are at rest, as determined by the coefficient of static friction.

GRIP FRICTION


What will happen to the temperature of the rockets nose cone as it moves through the air?

it gets hotter the faster it goes the hotter it will get (this involves friction) or another way of saying it is: The temperature will change due to friction, the faster it goes the hotter it gets (friction is present)


Why does the nose cone of the Concorde get hot?

Because it's rubbed against the passing air fast and hard enough for friction to heat it.


How does nose cone help rocket?

it is the only suitable shape to travel at more than mach speed.

The first tapered roller bearing using a cup and cone to even weight loads and to greatly reduce friction.


How friction create harm while cycling?

Friction can be either good or bad depending on where it is. Friction between parts that are meant to stay put is a good thing, friction between parts that are supposed to move is a bad thing. Tires for instance are meant to roll along the road, not slide. Here, friction is good. But then you cone to the hubs. In here, the wheel has to move around the axle. Here, friction is bad. Here, friction will turn effort that would otherwise have gone into moving the bike forward into heat, which is no use to the rider at all.


When a rocket re-enters the atmosphere and its nose cone becomes very hot where does the energy come from?

The energy that heats the rocket comes from gravity, but is released in heat as the nose cone encounters friction from air molecules. While in space, there are few molecules to encounter, but as it enters the thicker atmosphere, collisions increase and this produces heat in the air and on the rocket nose. In the case of the Space Shuttle, all of its initial velocity (energy) gained at launch is expended as heat as the shuttle lands, and it returns to its original gravitational state again.


What are different types of clutches?

diff types of dry friction clutches are- 1.cone clutch 2.single plate clutch 3.multiplateclutch 4.semi centrifugal clutch 5.centrifugal clutch in addition to these there are wet type friction clutches also


How do you change the clutch cable on a Citroen Saxo 1.6VTR?

Dry Friction Clutches :The following types of dry friction clutches will be described here :Cone ClutchSingle plate clutchMultiplate clutchSemi-centrifugal clutchCentrifugal clutchCone ClutchIn cone clutch the contact surfaces are in the form of cones . In the engaged position, the male cone is fully inside the female cone so that the friction surfaces are in complete contact. This is done by means of springs which keep the male cone pressed all the time.When the clutch is engaged, the torque is transmitted from the engine via the fly wheel and the male cone to the splined gear box shaft. For disengaging the clutch the male cone is pulled out by means of the lever system operated through the clutch pedal thereby separating the contact surfaces.Advantages:The only advantage of the clone clutch is that the normal force acting on the contact surfaces in this case is larger than the axial force, as compared to the simple single plate clutch in which the normal force acting on the contact surfaces is equal to the axial force.Disadvantages:If the angle of cone is made smaller than about 20 degree the male cone tends to bind or join in the female cone and it becomes difficult to disengage the clutch.A small amount of wear on the cone surface results in a considerable amount of the axial movement of the male cone for which it will be difficult to allow.Single Plate ClutchA simplified single page clutch is given. Friction plate is held between the flywheel and the pressure plate.There are springs (the numbers may vary, depending upon design) arranged circumferential, which provide axial force to keep the clutch is engaged position.The friction plate is mounted on a hub which is splined from inside and is thus free to slide over the gearbox shaft.Friction facing is attached to the friction plate on both sides to provide two annular friction surfaces for the transmission of power.A pedal is provided to pull the pressure plate against the spring force whenever it is required to be disengaged.Ordinarily it remains in engaged position.When the clutch pedal is pressed, the pressure plate is moved to the right against the force of the springs.This is achieved by means of a suitable linkage and a thrust bearing.With this movement of the pressure plate, the friction plate is released and the clutch is disengaged.Advantages:With the single plate clutch, gear changing is easier than with the cone clutch, because the pedal movement is less in this case.It does not suffer from disadvantages of cone clutch i.e., binding of cones etc. and hence it is more reliable.Disadvantages:As compared to cone clutch, the springs have to be more stiff and this means grater force required to be applied by the driver while disengaging.Multiplate ClutchThe multiplate clutch is an extension of single plate type where the number of frictional and the metal plates is increased.The increase in the number of friction surfaces obviously increases capacity of the clutch to transmit torque, the size remaining fixed.Alternatively, the overall diameter of the clutch is reduced for the same torque transmission as a single plate clutch.This type of clutch is, therefore, used in some heavy transport vehicles and racing cars where high torque is to be transmitted.Besides, this finds application in case of scooters and motor cycles, where space available is limited.The construction is similar to that of single plate type except that all the friction plates in this case are in two sets, i.e., one set of plates slides in grooves on the flywheel and the other one slides on splines on the pressure plate hub.Alternate plates belong to each set.
