(a) Define friction.
(b) Explain the static and kinetic friction with suitable diagrams. A large block of ice
is being pulled across a frozen lake. The block of ice has a mass of 250 kg. The
coefficient of friction between two ice surfaces is small: μk = 0.05. What is the
force of friction that is acting on the block of ice?
(c) Why friction is importance in terms of physics and engineering studies.
