What are the 2kinds of friction?

Static Friction and Kinetic Friction. Static Friction is what friction that slows you down. While Kinetic friction is sliding friction.


Do you have to overcome static friction to have sliding friction?

Yes. Sliding friction is also known as kinetic friction.


The force that keeps you rom sliding on an icy sidewalk is?

static friction


What is more sliding friction or static friction?

static friction is higher in most cases, if you're talking about the coefficient of static or kinetic friction


What is the difference with static friction and kinetic friction?

static friction is the friction between two bodies they are in contact. And another sliding over the other. Kinetic friction is the friction between two bodies they are rolling .And that force is opposite to the rolling angle


What pattern do you notice about the values for the coefficients of friction?

The value of static friction is higher than the value of kinetic (sliding) friction.


The two common forms of friction between two sliding surface presented in this course are are and kinetic friction?

The two common forms of friction between two sliding surfaces presented in this course are and kinetic friction.?

What is the force that opposes the sliding of two surfaces that are in contact with each other?

kinetic frictionA second opinion:Kinetic friction is the resistance to sliding motion when they're already moving.The beginning of sliding motion is resisted by static friction.


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.


It usually take more force to start an object sliding than it does to keep an object sliding because static friction is usually than sliding friction?

usually greater than the sliding friction
