Friction Block
ME-9807

Introduction

The Friction Block is made of wood and covered with felt on two sides. The block features sides of different surface areas for both wood and felt, allowing you to measure the effect of both material and surface area on frictional force. The block is designed to fit into the tray of a dynamics cart, allowing the cart to move on its wheels or be turned upside-down to move on the Friction Block without changing the mass.

Features

  1. Felt surface
    Two sides of different surface area are covered with felt, letting you compare the sides’ coefficients of friction to each other, and to the coefficients of equally sized wood surfaces.

  2. Wood surface
    Two sides of different surface area are bare wood, letting you compare the sides’ coefficient of friction to each other, and to the coefficients of equally sized felt surfaces.

  3. Slots
    Use to insert a Cart Picket Fence (ME-9804) or Angle Indicator (ME-9495A).

  4. Eye hook
    Tie a string here to pull the block.
