Friction opposes motion, then why is it impossible to walk on a frictionless surface?
Asked by commandodriller | 01 Sep, 2008, 10:15: PM
Expert Answer

When you walk, you move forward by pushing backward on the ground with a force this is due to friction between the ground and your feet , this is responsible for walking therefore it is not possible to walk on a frictionless surface.

In the arrangement shown in the figure, a heavy pulley of mass M is suspended from a spring of stiffness constant K and the mass m is suspended from a string tightly wound on the pulley. If the mass m is given a small downward displacement and released, find the time period of small oscillations (Take pulley as Disc) and string does not slips on the pulley.
