content-addressable memory or CAM. Content Addressable Memory provides a performance advantage over other memory search algorithms, such as binary or tree-based searches or look-aside tag buffers, by comparing the desired information against the entire list of pre-stored entries simultaneously, often resulting in an
Examples of Sliding Friction. 1  Sledding. 2  Pushing an object across a surface. 3  Rubbing one's hands together (The friction generated by rubbing's one hands is what generates heat.) 4  A car sliding on ice. 5  Opening and closing a sliding door. 6  A car turning a corner. 7  Rope and a pulley system.
Sliding friction is stronger when an object is stationary (this is called static friction) than when the object is in motion (this is called kinetic friction). When trying to move a box, it is often harder to get the box moving than it is to keep the box in motion.
