Yes. Sliding friction is also known as kinetic friction.

Is static friction or sliding friction stronger?

Static friction is typically stronger than sliding friction. Static friction occurs when an object is at rest and needs to overcome the initial force required to start moving, whereas sliding friction occurs once the object is already in motion.


What is normally greater static friction or sliding friction on the same object?

Static friction is typically greater than sliding friction on the same object. Static friction is the force that must be overcome to start an object moving, while sliding friction is the force that resists the motion of an object already in motion.


What friction is greater than sliding friction?

Static friction is greater than sliding friction. Static friction occurs when an object is at rest and an external force is being applied to move it, requiring a greater force to overcome the initial resistance compared to when the object is already in motion and experiencing sliding friction.


What type of friction do you have to overcome to make a book move across a desk?

You would have to overcome sliding friction to make a book move across a desk. Sliding friction is the force that resists the motion of two surfaces sliding against each other.


Forces of any two materials the force required to overcome sliding fiction is greater than the force to overcome starting friction?

If I understand the question correctly: It is actually ill-posed. The frictions you are refering to are dynamic (sliding) and static (starting). I think you will find that static friction is always harder to over come than dynamic friction, not vice-versa.


Does static or sliding friction keeps an object from moving when a force is applied?

Static friction keeps an object from moving when a force is applied. It is the force that must be overcome to initiate movement of an object. Sliding friction occurs once the object is in motion.


Which friction is greater sliding friction or static friction?

Static friction


True or false the force needed to overcome kenetiic friction is useally greater than that needed to overcome static friction?

False. The force required to overcome static friction is generally higher than the force needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction is the resistance to the initial movement of two objects at rest, while kinetic friction is the resistance to the motion of objects sliding against each other.


How does the static friction between two stationary system touching each other compare to the kinetic friction when they are sliding past each other?

Static friction is typically greater than kinetic friction. When two stationary systems are touching, the static friction between them prevents motion. Once they start sliding past each other, the static friction is overcome and kinetic friction comes into play, which is usually lower than static friction.


What is the difference between static friction and sliding friction?

Sliding friction is always less than the static friction by small amount.


What is slididng friction?

Static friction is the side force between objects that needs to be overcome to move it; sliding friction is the side force between objects that needs to be overcome to keep it moving once it starts to move, and is generally lower than static frictionmove it
