Question

A horse has to pull harder during the start of the motion than later because to overcome_______friction.

Answer 1

Answer:

A horse has to pull harder during the start of the motion than later because to overcome static friction.

Explanation:

• Static friction opposes the initiation of the motion of an object.
• Kinetic friction opposes the relative motion of the object with respect to the surface.

• For a motion of an object on the surface,the static friction is more than the kinetic frictional force.

• Hence it is easy to maintain the motion of an object on the surface than starting the motion

• Therefore the initiation of motion requires a huge amount of force.

Answer 2

Answer:

static friction and limiting friction
