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.
Rolling Friction. When an object rolls across a surface, rolling friction occurs. Rolling friction is easier to overcome than sliding friction for similar materials. This type of friction is important to engineers who design certain products. For example, skates, skateboards, and bicycles need wheels that move freely.
