Does friction act when an object is at rest?


Open in App
Solution

  1. A body at rest always experiences static friction.
  2. Static friction is the force required to make the resting body move.
  3. Kinetic friction is the resistive force experienced by moving bodies

Hence, friction does act when an object is at rest.
