2.Properties of
Friction
•Static friction: the body does
not move
§fs=Fapp,x (horizontal
component of Fapp) until it reaches the maximum
value fs,max = µsN
µs=coefficient of static friction
N = Normal force on the body from the surface
µs=coefficient of static friction
N = Normal force on the body from the surface
