It provides static friction, so the object cannot move until the static friction is overcome.

How do you apply friction?

Friction acts in the opposite direction that the object is moving or trying to move. The force of friction is calculated by multiplying the normal force of the object, usually mass times gravity, by the coefficient of friction.


Does friction cause an object to move or be still?

Friction is an opposing force on an object, so it slows it down.


What force can move object?

Gravity and friction


What is forces that move an object?

Friction force


How does friction hinder movement?

Friction allows the object to move more easily.


As soon as an object starts moving what replaces static friction?

Kinetic Friction replaces Static Friction when an object is in motion.


How does the friction affect the way objects move?

Friction will slow down the moving object


How does friction affect a way objects move?

Friction will slow down the moving object


How are the force of friction and the force necessary to move an object related?

In any given case, friction can produce AT MOST a certain amount of friction; if the coefficient of friction is known, this can be calculated as the normal force multiplied by the coefficient of friction.The force necessary to move an object must, of course, be greater than this maximum friction.


How do object move different surfaces?

Objects move on different surfaces by friction.


What effect does friction have when you try to move a object at rest?

Sticking. An extra force is required to start the motion, above the force required to maintain motion.


What does a force have to be than friction?

If you wish to actually move an object, some other force on the object has to be greater than the force of friction.
