1. James has a speed of 24 km/h.

How much time does he take to

travel a distance of 24.2 km?
GIVEN:
Speed – 24km/h
Distance – 24.2 km
SOLUTION:

t = 1.008 h
2. Mike runs a distance of 2,865 m, if it took him 29 min to run the
distance, what is his speed?
GIVEN:
Distance – 2,865 m
Distance – 29 min
SOLUTION:

S = 98.79 m/min
3. What is your distance if you travel 567 m/s in 4,922 s?
GIVEN:
Distance – 567 m/s
Time – 4,922 s

SOLUTION:
d = st
d = (4,922 s) (567 m/s)

d = 2,790,774 m
4. Mark drove 25.8 km in 2.6 h using his car. Calculate the speed of
the car.
GIVEN:
Distance – 25.8 km
Time – 2.6 h
SOLUTION:

S = 9.92 km/h
5. Calculate the time if the distance is 1,474 meters and the
speed is 154 m/s.
GIVEN:
Distance – 1,474 m
Speed – 154 m/s
SOLUTION:

t = 9.57 s
FRICTION
FRICTION
 Is the force that causes resistance between objects that are
in contact with each other.

TWO TYPES OF FRICTION:

1.STATIC FRICTION – present between nonmoving
surfaces.
2.KINETIC FRICTION – present between moving
surfaces.
TABLE OF SOME COMMON COEFFICIENTS OF
FRICTION
SURFACES
Steel on steel 0.74 0.57
Glass on glass 0.94 0.40
Metal on metal 0.15 0.06
(lubricated)
Ice on ice 0.10 0.03
Teflon on Teflon 0.04 0.04
Tire on concrete 1.00 0.80
Tire on wet road 0.60 0.40
Tire on snow 0.30 0.20
Formula of frictional force
1. A car is driven on a concrete road. The weight of the car is 1000
N. find the frictional force between the tire and the concrete
road.
GIVEN:
N = 1000 N
= 0.80

SOLUTION:

800 N
2. A huge steel cabinet stands on a steel floor in one of the rooms of
a hospital. The weight of the cabinet is 5100 N. Find the frictional
force between the two steel surfaces (steel cabinet and steel floor).
GIVEN:
N = 5100 N
= 0.74

SOLUTION:

3,774 N
3. A tricycle is parked on a wet road. The tricycle weighs
836 N. What is the frictional force?
GIVEN:
N = 836 N
= 0.60

SOLUTION:

501.6 N
4. A glass of water was placed on a moving glass chair. The weight
of the glass is 107.89 N. Find the frictional force.
GIVEN:
N = 107.89 N
= 0.40

SOLUTION:

43.156 N
