Friction

The document provides an overview of friction, defining it as a resisting force that opposes motion between surfaces in contact. It categorizes friction into types such as static, dynamic, sliding, and rolling, and discusses concepts like limiting friction, coefficient of friction, angle of friction, and laws governing static and dynamic friction. Key principles include that friction acts opposite to the direction of motion and is influenced by surface roughness rather than contact area.

What is Friction?
When a body slide or tends to
slide on a surface on which it is
resting, a resisting force
opposing the motion is
produced at the contact surface
(UNEVEN).
This resisting force is called
friction or friction force.

FORCE
Static Friction (Non limiting friction)
Friction experienced by a body when it is at rest is called static
friction.
Static friction is the force which opposes the initiation of motion of an
object on the surface.
Limiting Friction
The maximum static friction force that can be developed at the contact
surface, when body is just on the point of moving is called limiting force
of friction
NORMAL REACTION
Coefficient of friction
The ratio of limiting friction (F) and normal reaction (N) is called
coefficient of friction.
μ = F/N
F= Friction Force
N= Normal Reaction

Dynamic Friction
Friction experienced by a body when it is motion is called dynamic
friction.
 If the external force acting on the object is greater than maximum static
friction, the objects begin to slide.
 When an object slides, the surface exerts a frictional force called kinetic
friction (also called sliding friction or dynamic friction).
Static and Kinetic (Dynamic) friction
Sliding Friction
Friction experienced by a body when it slides over another body, is called
sliding friction.
Rolling Friction
Friction experienced by a body when it rolls over another body is called
rolling friction.
To Move an Object - Push or pull? Which is
easier?
Angle of Friction
The angle between normal reaction (A) and resultant force (R) is called
angle of friction. It is also called limiting angle of friction.
Angle of Friction

The angle of friction is defined


as the angle between the
normal force (N) and the
resultant force (R) of normal
force and maximum friction
force ( fsmax )
Angle Of Repose
With increase in angle of
the inclined surface, the
maximum angle at which
body starts sliding down is
called angle of friction.
Laws Of static friction
The friction force always acts in a direction, opposite to that in which the body
tends to move. The magnitude of friction force is equal to the external force.
F=P
The ratio of friction (F) and normal reaction(N) is constant.
μ =F/N
The friction force does not depends upon the area of contact between the two
surfaces.
The friction force depends upon the roughness of the surfaces.
Laws of dynamic friction
The friction force always acts in a direction, opposite that in which the
body is moving.
The ratio of limiting friction (F) and normal reaction (N) is constant &
it is known as coefficient of friction(μ).
• For moderate speeds, the friction force remains constant.
But it decreases slightly with the increase of speed.
