What causes skateboard speed to increase or decrease?
Gravity, friction, or wind drag.
If you stand on a skateboard and push off the ground with one of your feet the reason that the skateboard moves forward is that the force you apply to the skateboard equals what?
friction
When you increase your velocity on a skateboard it is harder to stop. This is an example of?
When you increase your velocity on a skateboard it is harder to stop because of momentum.
When you increase your velocity on a skateboard it is harder to stop this is example of?
When you increase your velocity on a skateboard it is harder to stop because of momentum.
How do skiers reduce friction?
Skiers reduce friction by waxing the base of their skis, which helps them glide more smoothly over the snow. Additionally, skiers can also adjust their body position and movements to minimize resistance and increase speed. Also, using properly maintained equipment and choosing the right wax for the snow conditions can help reduce friction.
What makes a skateboard fast or slow?
the friction between the wheels and the surface of the ground affect the speed of the skateboard. fo instance if you ride the skateboard on a smooth surface (with less friction) the skateboard will go faster.
What is an example of in reading friction intentionally waxing skis throwing sand on an icy driveway adding grease to gears on a bike or oiling a squeaky door?
Using sandpaper to increase friction on a slippery surface, such as on the bottom of shoes for better grip.
What force slows a skateboard when a skateboarder puts a foot down to brake?
The friction between the foot and the ground creates a force that opposes the motion of the skateboard, causing it to slow down. This friction converts the kinetic energy of the skateboard into thermal energy.
Where is friction a problem on a skateboard?
Friction is a problem on a skateboard where the wheels meet the ground, as high friction can slow down the skateboard and make it harder to maintain speed. This can be caused by debris on the ground, worn-out or dirty wheels, or a rough riding surface. Lubricating the bearings and keeping the wheels clean can help reduce friction.
When you increase your velocity on a skateboard it is harder to stop. Which is this an example of?
This is an example of inertia, specifically Newton's first law of motion. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force, in this case friction between the skateboard wheels and the ground.
What kind of energy conversions happen when you skateboard?
friction, heat, kinematic
What is the gradual increase of the moon called?
waxing
