Agate is good protective energy stone, especially for children, and is very calming and soothing. It also can help strengthen the body's connection to the earth.
The friction factor, f, is a dimensionless factor that depends primarily on the velocity u, diameter D, density Ï, and viscosity Î·. It is also a function of wall roughness which depends on the size Îµ, spacing Îµ' and shape of the roughness elements characterized by Îµ''.
Friction is a force that happens when objects rub against one another. Say you were pushing a toy train across the floor. It doesn't take much effort or force, because the toy is light. Now say you try to push a real train.
