Does the coefficient of kinetic friction depend on the weight of the block?

No, It does not depends on weight of block because this weight of block is being balanced by normal force. So by increasing weight of block, there is no effect on coefficient of friction.


How does mass effect efficiency?

The mass affects the efficiency of an object. It adds more weight, which causes more friction. More friction=less efficiency


Does friction equal weight?

I think you are asking whether friction is proportionalto weight in which case the answer is yes In other words if you double the weight you double the friction or halve the weight to halve the friction.

What happened to the coefficients of friction as the weight increased?

Nothing. The coefficient of friction is constant, as it is dependent on the surfaces that are interacting. Normal force increases as an objects mass increases (Be careful with the word "weight", as it denotes the effect of gravity) in a constant gravitational field. This normal force is what causes an increase in friction.

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.


What can effect the amount of frictions between two objects?

The two factors are the coeffiecient of friction, and the 'normal' force, which is equal and opposite to the weight of the object. The coefficient of friction is diffeerent for different objects. Friction force = Coeff. X Normal Force


What effect does friction have on steel?

it rubs the steel because its friction!


How does weight and mass affect friction?

Well weight and mass are proportional... But mass affects friction because the higher your mass the higher your friction.
