Can anyone help me identify the source of this friction interaction? The question seems unclear to me...can anyone explain?
Q: A bicyclist quits peddaling and the bike slows down due to a friction interaction. (Don't think about the drag interaction). Then it says Friction is occuring between the rubbing parts in the wheels...
If so, what would the source of the interaction be and the reciever?
Thanks!

Has anyone ever used the site A to Z Reading? It's $50 a year but it looks pretty cool. I'm a 3rd grade teacher trying to do guided reading and not only do I need ideas...but I am having alot of trouble finding the time to pull groups. Any suggestions from intermediate teachers out there? We won't really be able to do "centers". I have a 90 minute reading block and 35 minutes of it needs to be silent sustained reading. Any advice is appreciated.

Which would have the greatest kinetic energy? Me (mass = 75 kg) about to hit the ground after falling 80 meters or an average bullet (mass = 8 g) traveling 1000 m/s?

There are several steps you need to complete before calculating the KE of both objects. You must find the velocity for me just before I hit the ground and you must convert the mass of the bullet from grams to kilograms.


I know I asked this before...but im still confused about it...

I'm writing an essay, and I need a quote about fighting unfairness with words, even though the consequences of fighting with words may be just as bad. Something along the lines of "The Pen is mightier than the Sword." But I want to use something a bit different. (But, just in case, if you know, who said the Pen quote?)
