Brachistochrone and Sliding with Friction

Abstract

Motions of a material point along a set of parabolas are studied, taking into account the forces of Coulomb friction. The obtained results are compared with similar motions along the cycloid. The analysis is carried out using numerical calculations in the Mathcad program.
