Distinguish, differentiate, compare and explain what is the difference between Sliding and Rolling Friction. Comparison and Differences.
Difference between Sliding and Rolling Friction
S.No. | Sliding Friction | Rolling Friction |
1 | It is the force of friction acting between two bodies which slide or surfaces which are rubbing against each other. | It occurs when the surface of one body is rolling against the surface of another body. |
2 | Rolling of the bodies over others actually reduces the friction. | Sliding of the body increases the friction. Hence sliding friction is always larger than rolling friction. |
3 | It acts as a back-haul external force along the contact area to stop the relative motion. | It is a force which attempts to stop the rolling motion by generating a reverse torque and so, rolling friction is a resistive force but not a type of friction. |
