Frictional coefficant of wheels on the carpet
I'm trying to find two things. First off, what kind of material(I'm thinking some sort of rubber) do most teams use, and second, what would be the coefficant of kinetic friction on the carpet(Requires knowlage of what kind of carpet FIRST uses). I know I can find this out experamentaly but I don't quite have enough information to do it.
