there are a few different things that come to mind immediately. The most prevalent being changing one or both of the surfaces making contact. for instance, rubber (as in a tire, most often) on clean, dry pavement has a static friction coefficient of 0.9 μs while rubber (again as in a tire) on wet pavement has a static friction coefficient somewhere in the ballpark of 0.25-0.75 μs.

the static (and kinetic, for that matter) coefficient of friction varies between almost every pair of materials (some may be close if the surfaces are similar).

additionally, the force of friction would increase the greater the mass of the object that the force is being applied to. the force of friction is calculated as follows;

Ff = μ · N

where Ff is force of friction, μ is the coefficient of static friction, and N is the normal force (normal force is equal to the mass of the object times the acceleration of gravity. the unit of measurement for this value is newtons, and it is simply the weight of the object) Given this equation, you can see that by increasing the mass of the object, you are in effect increasing the frictional force acting on that object.

hope this helped!

By increasing the force of friction all you need to do is increase the force or the bottom layer more bumper thank u

How friction increases with weight?

yes, this is true when anyone increases our weight then no-one can't control oureself .( friction *weight).& increase the force .force is (torque*weight).hence friction increase with weight.


Frictional force will increase with increase in?

Friction increases as a function of velocity.


What are two ways friction can be increase?

one way is to make the surface rougher and another way is to increase the force pushing the surfaces together.

You increase the friction.


How can you make the friction force arrow longer?

Increase the normal force, or push down on it more (add more weight). friction = μ normal force μ is the coefficient of friction which is different for different surfaces


What happens to the static friction force as the mass is increased?

A force is a force, and independent of whatever it is is being applied to. One can discuss inertial, gravitational, or a frictional forces, and these things increase proportionally with mass increases.


How does weight and surface area affect the frictional force?

As mass increases Surfaces area increase so the gravitational force increase so the friction increase...............


When the block of mass is increased is there an increase in the value of coefficient of kinetic friction?

No, coefficient of friction is dependent on the materials in contact, not their mass. However the FORCE of friction will increase as the mass increases in this case.


Investigate-how friction increases with increase of size of an object?

The force of friction on an object is equal to the coefficient of friction times the force perpendicular to the surface (normal force). When the mass of an object increases, the normal force increases, and the force of friction also increases. However, because the equation does not involve surface area, increasing surface area has no affect on the force of friction.


Does friction cause the speed of moving objects to increase?

No, the force of friction always acts in the direction opposite to that of the motions.


Does magnetism affects friction?

Yes, magnetism is a force. Any force applied to an object will either increase or decrease the friction between that object and an adjacent surface.


2 ways to increase friction?

find a materials with a high coefficient of static friction and use them against each other ( like rubber dry concrete ) and bound them to the object and the surface it rests on. Increase the normal force by adding mass on the object or applying a perpendicular force to the surface of the object.
