 What Is Friction?
● When a body slide or tends to slide on a surface on which it is resting, a resisting
force opposing the motion is produced at the contact surface. This resisting force is
called friction or friction force.

4
 Limiting Friction
● The maximum friction force that can be developed at the contact surface, when
body is just on the point of moving Is called limiting force of friction.

5
 Types Of Friction
❖ Static Friction:-
➢ Friction experienced by a body when it is at rest is called static friction.
❖ Dynamic Friction:-
➢ Friction experienced by a body when it is motion is called dynamic friction.
❖ Sliding Friction:-
➢ Friction experienced by a body when it slides over another body, is called
sliding friction.
❖ Rolling Friction:-
➢ Friction experienced by a body when it rolls over another body is called
rolling friction.

6
 Angle of Friction
● The angle between normal reaction (A) and resultant force (R) is called angle of
friction.

● It is also called limiting angle of friction.

7
 Coefficient of friction
● The ratio of limiting friction (F) and normal reaction (N) is called coefficient of
friction.

μ=F/N

F = Friction Force
N= Normal Reaction

8
 Angle Of Repose
● With increase in angle of the inclined surface, the maximum angle at which body
starts sliding down is called angle of friction.

9
 Laws Of friction
❖ Laws of static friction

➢ The friction force always acts in a direction, opposite to that in which the body
tends to move.
➢ The magnitude of friction force is equal to the external force.
F=P
➢ The ratio of limiting friction (F) and normal reaction (N) is constant.
F/N=μ

➢ The friction force does not depends upon the area of contact between the two
surfaces.
➢ The friction force depends upon the roughness of the surfaces.

10
 Laws Of friction
❖ Laws of dynamic friction

➢ The friction force always acts in a direction, opposite that in which the body is
moving.

➢ The ratio of limiting friction (F) and normal reaction (N) is constant & it is known
as coefficient of friction (μ).

➢ For moderate speeds, the friction force remains constant. But it decreases slightly
with the increase of speed.
