Agate is good protective energy stone, especially for children, and is very calming and soothing. It also can help strengthen the body's connection to the earth.
The friction factor, f, is a dimensionless factor that depends primarily on the velocity u, diameter D, density Ï, and viscosity Î·. It is also a function of wall roughness which depends on the size Îµ, spacing Îµ' and shape of the roughness elements characterized by Îµ''.
When one thing rubs and grates against another, it causes friction. That can include two clashing personalities or simply a match striking the matchbox and causing a spark. A form of resistance, friction is caused by a chafing movement between two or more objects. In the 18th century, friction meant specifically a âresistance to motion,â but a few decades later grew to also describe disagreement or conflict.
