1 Static and Kinetic Friction

2 The force of friction depends on two things, what are they?
The force pressing the surfaces together (normal force - FN) The type of surfaces in contact (coefficient of friction – μ)

3 What direction does friction always act?
Opposite the direction of motion or opposite the direction an object would tend to move.

4 Static Friction The Force of Static Friction keeps a stationary object at rest! FN F fs Fg

5 Kinetic Friction Once the Force of Static Friction is overcome, the Force of Kinetic Friction is what offers resistance to a moving object! Motion FN F fk Fg
