When a body slides over a surface the kinetic friction and static friction related as?

Kinetic friction is the friction that applies when an object is moving; static friction is the friction that applies when the object is not moving. Static friction must always be greater than, or equal to, kinetic friction.


Should one add static friction and kinetic friction together to find the total friction force?

No. You use whichever applies: if an object is at rest, you use static friction. If it is moving, you use kinetic friction.


Is rolling static and sliding friction apply in gymnastics?

Of course! Friction applies in gymnastics in TONS of ways.

Static friction


Is static friction the same as starting friction?

Yes, look at "what is static friction?" Static friction is also known as starting friction.


What is more sliding friction or static friction?

static friction is higher in most cases, if you're talking about the coefficient of static or kinetic friction


What are the 2kinds of friction?

Static Friction and Kinetic Friction. Static Friction is what friction that slows you down. While Kinetic friction is sliding friction.

Usually static.


Does static friction or rolling friction causes a car tire to turn on the road?

static friction


Is the static friction is always zero?

Actually, the static friction is neverzero.


What friction is used when an object sits still?

Static friction resists an object from moving when at rest (still) with respect to the surface it is resting on or in contact with. Kinetic friction, or dynamic friction, (normally what we think of when we say 'friction') describes the friction that occurs when one body moves relative to another body and when both bodies are in contact with each other.
