less than 0.75 and in exceptional cases equal to 0.75,eg.when the friction between two teflon surfaces is considered
Sliding friction is always less than the static friction by small amount.
sliding friction is less than static friction. it is also very easy to move better than static friction.
Table of CoefficientsThe coefficient of kinetic friction is always less than or equal to that of static friction.The table below shows many coefficients of friction. Notice that each value is always given for a pair of surfaces. Friction doesn't work unless there are two surfaces.Also note that there are values shown for both static friction and kinetic friction. Static friction deals with starting to move something, while kinetic friction deals with keeping something moving once it's already in motion.In each case, it's also important to note that the coefficients of kinetic friction are always less than or equal to the coefficients of static friction. objectWrite('');Coefficients of Friction for Pairs of SurfacesSurfaces in ContactCoefficient of Static Friction (s)Coefficient of Kinetic Friction (k)Wood on wood0.50.3Waxed ski on snow0.10.05Ice on ice0.10.03Rubber on concrete (dry)1.00.8Rubber on concrete (wet)0.70.5Glass on glass0.940.4Steel on aluminum0.610.47Steel on steel (dry)0.70.6Steel on steel (lubricated)0.120.07Teflon on steel0.040.04Teflon on Teflon0.040.04
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!

Limiting friction is just the maximum static friction force (if you go over that point static friction becomes kinetic friction).Let f = frictional force,c = coefficient of frictionN = Normal forcefmax = cN = limiting frictionAlthough the term coefficient of limiting friction is not really used, I'd assume it would just be "c" (it's a coefficient after all). So they would be the same.If you meant is coefficient of friction the same as limiting friction, than the answer is no. Coefficient of friction is just the "c" in the equation. Limiting friction however is the product of the coefficient and the normal force.

the equation for static friction coefficient is:static friction coefficient = force required to break bond / weight of object (tire)you need the friction coefficient between rubber and grass, say its 0.5, this means the force you have to apply to equal the friction force is:0.5 = x / 30x = 0.5 * 30x = 15 lbs fanything greater than 15 lbs f will break the bond and accelerate the tire.notes :1 / moving friction coefficient is usually less than static friction coefficient, so youve less drag once its moving.2 / friction coefficients are never greater than 1.0actually , some friction coefficients do exceed 1.0 , see google / friction coefficients table
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.

Millions of classroom experiments would indicate that there is, in fact, a difference, but it is most likely caused by dirt, oil, and imperfections on the surfaces. When care is taken to ensure the surfaces are uniform and clean, the difference between static and dynamic friction disappears.
Friction has a low coefficient, usually less than 1.
Typically not. However rolling friction is somewhat of a myth. Rolling friction is actually caused by static friction. There are really only two types of friction: Static and Kinetic. That's it! Rolling friction is caused by static friction and the coefficient of friction (which determines its strength) is dependent upon the two materials of interaction.
When an object is at rest on a particular surface, the frictional force keeping it from sliding in any given direction is known as static friction; the magnitude of this force is always less than or equal to the product of those surfaces' static friction coefficient and the component of the gravitational force (weight) of the object perpendicular to the plane of the surface, the latter of which is equal to the normal force that is exerted by the intermolecular bonds in the surface material, upward and perpendicular to the plane of the surface itself. (In other words, Fs ≤ µsFn, where Fs=force of static friction, µs=static friction coefficient, Fn=normal force of surface upon object.)
