Well, I hate being an idiot but I have been there and those brochures and things shown do not list a "K" factor that I can find. I did not even find a definitive mu (coeff of friction) in any of Dow's literature. I have asked Dow and am waiting to hear from them but thought I'd ask here...

I cannot find it...

OK guys/gals, question of the century: What is the friction factor (K) for Dow's Molykote 3402C anti-friction coating? thanks for any insight...

I know of only 1 universe. Isn't the definition of universe, everything? Likewise, some hypothesize about things beyond the universe - how can there be anything beyond the universe if the universe is everything to begin with?

Right. The one book (forgot the title) I saw "jerk" in, said the same thing; 'not used for much in physics.' I have the 6th edition of University Physics and was thinking of updating to the newest one. Wondered if they expanded scope to at least introduce things like this. thanks guys

Thanks guys. Yes I did look at an on-line version of the books' TOC. And I did not find jerk. I could not find an index, so thanks for that info Mr. Jones. I did see mention of jerk in the synopsis for another book but as you say, it was VERY limited. I was afraid this would be the answer.

Does anyone have the latest University Physics (Young) textbook and know if there is a discussion of "jerk" in it? THanks, JP
