What is Friction?
 Why is there Friction?
Surface roughness
Electronic interactions at the atomic level
Friction is caused by the temporary
electrostatic bonds created between two
objects in contact with one another.

Friction
• How does friction affect the motion of
objects?
– It can slow an object down
like the friction between
the tires and the road.
– It is responsible for
increasing the speed of an
object like a car.
– It is also responsible
for objects being able to
change direction.
Static Friction
• Static Friction:
– The resistive force that keeps an object from
moving.

Fnet = Fforward – Ffriction

System
Fgravity
Since the crate is not accelerating, Fnet = 0
Fforward = Ffriction
Note: As long as the crate does not move, Fforward = Ffriction
Kinetic Friction
• Kinetic Friction:
– The resistive force that opposes the relative
motion of two contacting surfaces that are moving
past one another.
– Since the crate will initially accelerate, Fnet > 0.

Fnet = Fforward – Ffriction
Note: If the crate moves at a constant
speed, then Fforward = Ffriction and Fnet =
0.
An Important Term
• APPLIED FORCE
– Usually whatever is pushing or pulling
– NOT the same as Net Force
Determining the Frictional Force
For people who had a lot of wrong ideas about Physics the
Greek alphabet sure gets used a lot!
• The force of friction is proportional to the normal

force and a proportionality constant ( - pronounced
mu) called the coefficient of friction. FN
For static friction:
– 0 < Ff, static < sFN
For kinetic friction:
Ff
– Ff, kinetic =  kFN
Note: FN = the force normal (perpendicular) to
the frictional force on the object.
 is dimensionless
Ff, static > Ff, kinetic
Frictional Force
• For static friction:
– 0 < Ff, static < sFN
• For kinetic friction:
– Ff, kinetic =  kFN
Determining the Frictional Force
•  (the coefficient of friction) is usually in the range
of 0<=  <= 1, but this is not always the case

Determining the Frictional Force
• Sketch a graph of Fs vs applied force
• Sketch a graph of Fk versus applied force
• Sketch a graph showing the transition from Fs
to Fk
Ff versus applied force
Ff versus applied force
The Normal Force
• The normal force is a force that opposes the
Earth’s gravitational attraction and is
perpendicular to the surface that an object
rests or is moving on.
– For a horizontal surface, FN = Fg = mg.
– For a surface that is not perpendicular to gravity,
FN = Fgcos

Key Ideas
• Friction is an opposing force that exists
between two bodies.
• Friction is proportional to the normal
force and the coefficient of friction;
static or kinetic.
• The force required to overcome static
friction is greater than that required to
overcome kinetic friction.
