What is the difference between positive and negative friction?
I got chills and there multiplying
What is a negative - positive?
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive
How can friction be both a positive and negative aspect in your every day lives?
a positive aspect is that friction stops your car from sliding so you stay on the road a negative aspect is that when it comes to machinery engineers need to calculate in friction. the friction that comes with making products will make companys actually lose money. you need more energy to overcome friction. this is why we haveto eat all ofthe food we do. to overcome all the forces of friction acting on us we need to fuel our bodys.
When multiplying numbers what do you do with the positive and negative signs?
Negative * positive = negative Positive * positive = positive Negative * negative = positive

What often happens when you rub one objects with another objects?
it depends on the charge...if it is positive on a negative they create static if it is positive on a positive or a negative on a negative...nothingAnother view:The friction develops heat.
Does friction provide negative acceleration or positive acceleration?
Friction opposes motion. As long as you define the direction in which the object is moving to be positive, the acceleration due to friction will be negative. If you think about it, you start out with positive speed and friction decreases the speed, so adding friction subtracted from the speed. Note: Friction is counterintuitive when you start dealing with rolling without slipping. This answer doesn't address this.
What are the negative and positive charges in clouds called?
Positive charges in clouds are called protons, while negative charges are called electrons. When these charges become separated within a cloud, it can lead to the formation of lightning.
Is friction negative on a free body diagram?
Friction can be represented as either positive or negative on a free body diagram, depending on the direction it opposes motion. If motion is to the right, friction would be drawn pointing to the left as a negative force. If motion is to the left, friction would be drawn pointing to the right as a positive force.
What is the effect of force on materials?
The effects of forces are materials can be either positive or negative. Positive effects include the ability to stop due to friction.
Is a positive plus a negative make a positive or a negative?
Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative

Does your hair have a negative or positive charge?
Hair typically carries a slight negative charge due to the presence of water molecules with a net negative charge on its surface.
How is dividing integers similar to multiplying integers with the resulting sign?
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
