Question

Coefficient of static friction is depends on _______________

Open in App

Solution

Static Friction:-For an object at rest on a flat table, Static friction is zero...The maximum static friction force is $(F_{s})_{m} a x = μ_{s} N$ where $μ_{s}$ is the coefficient of static friction. Static friction is subtle because the static friction force is variable and depends on the external forces acting on an object.
