The magnitude of friction is proportional to the magnitude of the normal force which is proportional to the magnitude of gravity(The magnitude of the normal force is indirectly proportional to the magnitude of gravity.). The magnitude of the normal force, N, compared to gravity, G, on angle z, is:

N=cos(z)*G

On a flat surface.

N=G

The coefficient of friction, whether static or kinetic, f is therefore:

N=cos(z)*G*f
