A force is a force, and independent of whatever it is is being applied to. One can discuss inertial, gravitational, or a frictional forces, and these things increase proportionally with mass increases.

Fs = MsN, where ms is the coefficient of static friction, and n is the normal force, which is equal to mg if is at the x-axis.
As the formula shows, the static friction increases with an increase in mass.

What force causes static charge?
Friction is the force that causes static charge
What are different forms of friction?
Static friction and sliding friction. Static friction is the force that stops a mass from sliding and sliding friction is the force that slows down an object that is already sliding. Static friction is stronger than sliding friction, and this difference is reflected in different coefficients of friction for sliding and static friction for a given surface.
What friction that prevents an object from moving when force is applied?
Static Friction.
What kind of friction requires more force to overcome?
Static friction
What are the force acting at rest?
It is the gravitational force. Mostly gravity and static friction. Friction is a manifestation of the electromagnetic force.

When is static friction applied?
Static friction is not necessarily an applied force, but something that occurs when there is an applied force. Static friction occurs when there is no motion and there is a force being applied to an object on a surface.
What force causes static charge?
Friction is the force that causes static charge
Diference between static and kinetic friction?
the static friction is the force of friction that keep an object at rest from movie and kinetic friction is the force of friction that tries to start a moving object
What are different forms of friction?
Static friction and sliding friction. Static friction is the force that stops a mass from sliding and sliding friction is the force that slows down an object that is already sliding. Static friction is stronger than sliding friction, and this difference is reflected in different coefficients of friction for sliding and static friction for a given surface.
What type of friction is the frictional force needed to start on object at rest into motion?
Static
What are four forces in static friction?
Four forces in static friction are:- 1. Weight 2. Tension 3. Normal Force 4. Static Friction
What causes static forces?
Friction is the force that causes static charge
Is static friction stronger than rolling friction?
Yes it is. The force of rollin friction is 100 to 1000 times weaker than static friction.
What friction that prevents an object from moving when force is applied?
Static Friction.
What kind of friction requires more force to overcome?
Static friction
What is the unit for static friction and force?
newton
