What is Friction
• Friction is a force
• A frictional force can exist when two
substances contact each other.
• The molecules of each surface interact
according to Newton’s Laws of Motion.
• Friction always opposes motion, i.e., it is
opposite to the direction of velocity.
• If there is no motion, then friction opposes
the sum of all the other forces which are
parallel to the surfaces in contact.

Types of Friction
Dry Friction
Fluid Friction
Occurs between the non-lubricated
surfaces of solid objects
Occurs with fluids,or
lubricated surfaces
Static Friction
When dry friction acts between
two surfaces that are not
moving relative to each other

Contact Force
• Force that occurs between objects
that are in contact with each other.
• Contact forces can be resolved into
components that are perpendicular
and parallel to the surfaces in contact.
• The perpendicular component is called
the normal force.
• The parallel component is called
friction.

runner
During the push off phase in running, the normal force acts
upward on the runner, while the friction force acts forward on
the runner. The friction force is the only force capable of
moving the runner horizontally down the track. The normal
force can only accelerate the runner upwards.

Friction and the Normal Force
• The maximum frictional force is
proportional to the normal contact
force.
• An increase in the normal force results
in an increase in the maximum friction.
• This is because the molecules on the
two surfaces are pushed together more,
thus increasing their interactions.

Friction and Surface Area
• Friction is not affected by the size of
the surface area in contact.
• If the normal force remains constant,
but the contacting surface area is
increased, then the normal force is
spread out over more molecules, thus
the force on each molecule is reduced.

Calculating Friction
• Ff_max = FN
• Ff_max is the maximum force of friction
•  (Mu) is the coefficient of friction
• FN is the normal force
• Friction can range in value from -Ff_max to +Ff_max
•  depends on the types of surfaces that are interacting.
It would be low for rubber on ice, but high for rubber
on asphalt. It also depends on whether the surfaces are
moving relative to each other ( static or dynamic )

coefficient of static friction between the block and the counter
is 0.4, what horizontal force is necessary to move the block.

Horse Pulling Cart
According to Newton’s 3rd Law, these forces are equal and
opposite. So, if the horse pulls forward on the cart with the
same force as the cart pulls back on the horse, how will the
horse ever move the cart?

13
Solution
Friction acts on the horse’s feet but very little acts on the wheels
of the cart. Drawing a free body diagram reveals the answer. The
horse and cart are one system so the forces in between them are
internal and cannot produce a change in motion of the system.

Fat Bastard Wins
• Both competitors have a force of 3000
N pulling on them from the rope.
• Fat Bastard’s extra mass gives him a
potential friction force (3090 N) which
is greater than the force of the rope, so
he doesn’t move.
• Pfister’s maximum friction force (1170
N) is less than the force of rope, so he
is pulled toward Fat Bastard.

Would it be better to pull up or down
on the rope?
• Suppose competitor A was taller than
competitor B.
• A would be pulling on an upward angle,
while B would be pulling on a
downward angle.
• Who has the advantage?

A 5 kg box is being pushed up a 40 incline with an acceleration
of 2 m/s/s. If the coefficient of dynamic friction between the
incline and box is 0.2, then what is the value of Fx1? Remember
that friction always opposes the direction of motion.
