chapter 4 - forces and newton`s laws of motion
... Friction is a force that always opposes motion. The two types we are considering are called Static(friction when the two surfaces involved are not moving) and Kinetic(they are moving) Friction exists because rough surfaces interlock and reduce or stop motion. Even if surfaces are polished as smooth ...

Chapter 8 Accelerated Circular Motion
... The path of the airplane and the guideline lie in the same horizontal plane because the weight of the plane is balanced by the lift generated by its wings. Find the tension in the 17 m guideline for a speed of 19 m/s. Tension is the centripetal force necessary to maintain airplane in the circle ...
