I found somewhere online that the coefficient of static friction was 0.36, but I don't remember where so that has little credibility.

Does glass have alot of friction What is the order of the amount of friction from sandpaper wood tile carpet and glass?

It doesn't quite work that way. You don't specify the coefficient of friction for "glass", or from "wood", etc.; you specify the coefficient of friction between a PAIR of substances, sometimes also including any substance in between, such as lubricants. For example, you would specify the coefficient of friction:* Between glass and glass (dry) * Between glass and glass (wet) * Between glass and wood * Between wood and wood * Between tiles and leather (this might be interesting, since shoes are often made out of leather) etc.


Is coefficient of friction a material property?

Not exactly. It is more like a property that expresses the RELATIONSHIP between two different materials. For example, wood on wood can have one coefficient of friction, wood on glass another, and wood on concrete yet another, so this isn't something that can be attributed to a single material (in this case wood).


An example of two surfaces that have a low coefficient of friction?

human joints are an excellent example. they have a static friction coefficient of .01 μs and a kinectic friction coefficient of .003 μkanother good example would be waxed wood on dry snow (as in a snowboard on a ski slope) this has a static friction coefficient of .04 μsHope this helped!


What is the coefficient of static friction for wood on rubber?

Over 9000!


What is the coefficient of friction for metal on wood?

the answer will be meaningless until you specify what kind of wood and how finished.


Why do you think the coefficient of friction varies so much for dry wood on dry wood?

Different types of wood have different coefficients of friction. As dense, hard, wood will tend to be smoother than a porous, soft, wood.


What two surfaces have the highest coefficient in friction?

wood on dry concrete .......apex cant help you with nothing


Could you use wood for static friction?

Wood, or any other material, could be used to introduce static friction to a system. The choice of material(s) depends on how much static friction the system requires. Each material has its unique coefficient of friction.


How much friction thick carpet produces?

It doesn't work that way - friction is not something that is "produced". The way it works is that you have a coefficient of friction for two surfaces that are in contact. Then you use that coefficient of friction, and multiply it by the normal force, to calculate the actual FORCE of friction.For the coefficient of friction, you need to specify a PAIR of substances; for example, carpet against glass would probably have less friction than carpet against rubber.


What factors can effect the amount of friction between two objects?

The force of friction between two objects is the product of the normal force and the coefficient of friction. The normal force is the component of force that is perpendicular to the plane of friction. For example, if you are pushing on a block of wood on the floor with a force F at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal, then the normal force N = F sin 30. The coefficient of friction is specific to the two materials, in this example the block of wood and the floor. In addition, there is a static coefficient of friction (applicable to a stationary situation) and a kinetic coefficient of friction (applicable when the object is already moving).


What things create little friction?

Objects which cause little amount of friction are smooth objects such as glass and other objects which are man-made (most of the time). However, there are many objects which are natural which can create minimal amounts of friction too.answ2. Very often, using two different materials will give superior wear characteristics - = low friction. e.g. White metal bearings against steel, Steel against wood (in ship's prop shafts).I'd expect glass against glass to have a high friction coefficient.


What factors determine the coefficient of friction?

quality of the Surface is affected to the Coefficient of friction
