Why does a larger mass cause more friction?
Friction force (f) is the normal force by the surface on the object multiplied by the coefficient of friction.f = N1S u
The the value of the coefficient of friction the greater the resistance to sliding?
The larger the value of μ (aka Mu, the coefficient of friction, the greater the frictional force on an object. For instance, steel on nonlubricated steel has a μ of 0.58 while steel on lubricated steel has a μ of 0.06.
What does 'co-efficient of friction' mean?
The amount of friction force that acts upon a body of mass depends on two factors: the property of the object and the normal force acting on the body. "Coefficient of friction" refers to the property of the material; in other words, the higher the coefficient of friction, larger the friction force is. The force of friction can be represented by this equation: FF = µFN. µ in this case represents the coefficient of friction. It can best be described as the numerical value that equates to the property of the object we are dealing with. µ does not have units; this reinforces the idea that it is just a numerical value that represents how "rough" or "smooth" the surface of an object is. Simply, the coefficient of friction is a way to describe, symbolically and numerically, how hard it is to move an object along a surface that the object is in contact with.
Is static friction stronger than rolling and sliding friction?
It had better be! Otherwise, nothing could ever start sliding ... as soon as yourpull on the string becomes strong enough for the object to break free of thestatic friction and begin to slide, the force of kinetic friction would take over,and it would suddenly be even stronger!
How surface influences the amount of friction there is?
The larger the contact surface, the more friction. The more uneven the surface, the more friction. The material of the surface has also an effect on friction.
How does the coefficient of static friction for two surfaces in contact compare to the coefficient of kinetic friction for the same two surfaces?
The coefficient of static friction is always larger because it takes more initial force to move an object that is at rest.

Would a smaller toy car go faster then a larger one down a ramp?
yes because it is smaller and friction will be smaller so it will go faster!
Can the GCF be larger than the smallest coefficient?
No. The GCF can be less than or equal to the smallest coefficient.
Which is the larger the kinetic friction force or the statical friction force?
Statical friction
Can a gcf of a polynomial be larger than the smallest coefficient?
No.
What is smaller when its larger and larger when its smaller?
Negative Numbers.
