SPH4C Module 2 Assignment 1: Analysis of Effects on Friction Purpose: to analyze the effects of surface area, mass, and material on the force of friction Hypothesis: state the expected effects of surface area, mass, and material on friction Procedure Part A 1. Find a rectangular box (even a tissue box will do) and attach a string to the box. 2. With the large side down, pull the box to get it moving and then keep it moving at constant speed. Note the forces you applied. Repeat with the box on its side. Note any changes in the forces you applied. 3. 4. Add some mass to the box and repeat. Again, note any changes. Procedure Part B 1. Open Friction Lab 2. Start the simulation for "Rubber on Ice". 3. Record the mass. Note that you will convert g to kg. 4. Use the graph generated to estimate the maximum force of static friction, F (N), and the force of kinetic friction, F (N). 5. Reset the simulation, change the "Object Mass" and repeat steps 2 to 4. 6. Reset the simulation, change the "Object Mass" again and repe
