Does friction depend on the area in contact?
The force of friction does, but the coefficient of friction does not.
What happened to the coefficients of friction as the surface area of the contact increased?
As the coefficient of friction is not function of the area or not related to the area of the contact surface so the coefficient of friction remains constant on the increase of the contact area. The coefficient of friction depends upon the material of the friction surfaces only.

What is coefficient of friction..?
A higher coefficient of friction indicates that two surfaces in contact have a greater resistence. A lower coefficient of friction indicates that the two surfaces in contact have less resistence. Soccer cleats on grass have a greater coefficient of friction than skates on ice.
What is friction coefficient?

The coefficient of friction is a blank number that represents the resistance to sliding between two blank in contact with one another?
Unitless, surfaces
What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.
The is a number that represents the resistance to sliding between two surfaces in contact with one another?
The friction is a number that represents the resistance to sliding between two surfaces in contact with one another. It is measured in Newtons (N).
The ratio of the resistance force to the effort force is called?
The ratio of resistance force to effort force is a mechanical advantage.
Will frictional force depends on mass and density?
Frictional force depends on the contact force and on the coefficient of friction. The coefficient of friction depends on the types of materials in contact; the contact force may depend on mass, if it is caused by gravity.
Is coefficient of friction dependent on the size of the perpendicular force?
No. The coefficient depends only on the two surfaces which are in contact.
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.
