Friction

Frictional forces affect almost every situation and Drag

tend to oppose motion.

The block wants to slide down the incline so friction


opposes this motion.
Chapter 6 - Force and
Friction Motion II

Friction
Static friction ~fs is a force that holds an object in Drag

place (so ~v = 0). Uniform Circular Motion

Static friction ~fs is a force that holds an object in Drag

place (so ~v = 0). Uniform Circular Motion

Even if the applied force ~F increases, the frictional force


balances it.

Kinetic friction ~fk is a force that opposes motion Friction

Drag
after an object begins to slide. Uniform Circular Motion

The kinetic friction force is less than the static friction force
and the motion is jerky.

Property 1: For a motionless object, ~fs points Uniform Circular Motion

parallel to the contact surface and balances the


sum of the other forces in the plane of that surface.

Property 2: For motionless objects, the frictional Uniform Circular Motion

force has a maximum value of

fs,max = µs FN ,

where µs is the coefficient of static friction and FN


is the magnitude of the normal force.

Property 2: For motionless objects, the frictional Uniform Circular Motion

force has a maximum value of

where µs is the coefficient of static friction and FN


is the magnitude of the normal force.

If the other forces in that plane exceed fs,max , then the object
slides.
