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''.
Friction is typically characterized by a coefficient of friction which is the ratio of the frictional resistance force to the normal force which presses the surfaces together.In this case the normal force is the weight of the block.f friction. The frictional force is also presumed to be proportional to the coefficient of friction. However, the amount of force required to move an object starting from rest is usually greater than the force required to keep it moving at constant velocity once it is started.
