The Friction Force There are two types of friction forces: Kinetic Friction Forces Static Friction Forces Kinetic Friction Forces An object is experiencing a kinetic friction force when the object is moving relative to a surface. Kinetic Friction Forces The magnitude of the kinetic friction force can be expressed as: Question A person has a choice of either pushing or pulling a sled at a constant velocity, as the drawing illustrates. Friction is present. If the angle θ is the same in both cases, does it require less force to push or to pull? Account for your answer. Example?1??Sled Riding A sled is traveling at 4.00 m/s along a horizontal stretch of snow, as Figure illustrates. The coefficient of kinetic friction is μk=0.0500. How far does the sled go before stopping? Static Friction Forces An object is experiencing a static friction force when the object intend to move (but not move yet) relative to the surface. Properties of Static Friction Forces The magnitude fs of the static frictional force can have any value from zero up to a maximum value of depending on the applied force. The maximum static friction is: Example?2??The Force Needed to Start a Sled Moving A sled is resting on a horizontal patch of snow, and the coefficient of static friction is μs=0.350. The sled and its rider have a total mass of 38.0 kg. What is the magnitude of the maximum horizontal force that can be applied to the sled before it just begins to move? Example 3 A House on a Hill A house is built on the top of a hill with a nearby 45° slope (Fig. 6-42). An engineering study indicates that the slope angle should be reduced because the top layers of soil along the slope might slip past the lower layers. If the static coefficient of friction between two such layers is 0.5, what is the least angle φ thro
