In forging pressure P and longitudinal stress (σx
) build up to a maximum value at the centre
of the plate(work), and reduce to a minimum value at the edge(end) of the plate. When this
variation in P & ( σx
) is plotted over the entire length, a peak exists at the centre,
resembling a "hill".
This plot is called as friction hill.

Friction (from air resistance) stops them from falling faster and faster continually - instead they reach a maximum velocity and stay at that speed until they pull their parachute. Friction prevents them from plummeting to their death.
Rolling friction is less than sliding friction so it is easier to move heavier objects using wheels.
That depends on the friction, or grip, between your feet and the surface you are standing on. Its a battle between gravity and friction. If you are in bare feet on ice, mud, or wet grass or clay, gravity wins and you take a tumble. If you are wearing hiking boots on rock, stone, or any surface with a little friction, friction wins.
Charlotte Angas Scott was a revolutionary forging through various obstacles to acquire numerous firsts for women in the field of mathematics.
As friction is also just a type of force (an oppsoing force), it's standard unit is also Newton as of any other force.
