Fuller, Robert W. (Robert Warren), 1871-1953, Brownlee, Raymond B. (Raymond Bedell), b. 1877 joint author, Carhart, Henry Smith, 1844- First principles of physics. [from old catalog] · Boston, Allyn and Bacon · leaf 129
surface of one body, atwhich the weight of a second body will just cause thelatter to slip down the inclined surface of the first. Experimental: (a) A hard wood block, with various weights upon it,is dragged over the surface of a smooth horizontal boardby means of a cord attached to the block and… … Fig. 45. surfaces is the weight of the block plus the load placedupon it. Several weights ranging from 100 to 1000 gramsshould be used to load the block. From these readingsthe coefficient of friction may be found by dividing thefriction by the pressure causing it. (5) Using the same block and…
