Q

Amontons’ First Law: The force of friction is directly proportional to the applied load.
Amontons’ Second Law: The force of friction is independent of the apparent area of contact.
Coulomb’s Law of Friction: Kinetic friction is independent of the sliding velocity.

Coefficient of force is

A

The ratio between the force of friction and normal force is called coefficient of friction. It is usually situated between 0 and 1 , sometimes it is more than 1

Q

Frictional force is defined as a force resisting the relative motion of two bodies. The bodies are pressed against each other with the Normal Force. Then, coefficient of friction = Friction Force divided by Normal Force.

A

Wowwwwwwww-) I didn’t know that
