Re: Requesting Physists Help With Friction

On carpet using roughtop surface texture, an interlock actually happens between the two throwing off the whole "surface area has no effect on static friction" deal. this is why wider wheels usually pushed better. But this year its a flat profile wheel, and a slightly bumpy playing field which makes the traditional equations more relavant.
