Frictional Forces Two types:
- static – applies to stationary objects - kinetic – applies to sliding (moving) objects
Like FN, the Frictional Force is a contact force, but acts parallel to the interface of two objects

There is some maximum static frictional force, fs
max. Once the applied force exceeds it, the book moves

s is the coefficient of static friction, it is a dimensionless number, different for each surface-object pair (wood-wood, wood-metal); also depends on surface preparation
s does not depend on the mass or surface area of the object
Has value: 0 < s < 1.5

When an Object is Moving? fs
max is exceeded so the object can move, but friction force is still being applied.
However, less force is needed to keep an object moving (against friction) than to get it started
We define kinetic friction
k is the coefficient of kinetic friction, similar to S but always less than S
Now, let’s consider incline plane problem, but with friction

Like the normal force, the friction and tension forces are all manifestations of the electromagnetic force
They all are the result of attractive (and repulsive) forces of atoms and molecules within an object (normal and tension) or at the interface of two objects
Applications of Newton’s 2nd Law
Equilibrium – an object which has zero acceleration, can be at rest or moving with constant velocity
0,00 yx FFF
Example: book at rest on an incline with friction
Non-equilibrium – the acceleration of the object(s) is non-zero yyxx maFmaFamF ,
Example Problem
Three objects are connected by strings that pass over massless and frictionless pulleys. The objects move and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the middle object and the surface of the table is 0.100 (the other two being suspended by strings). (a) What is the acceleration of the three objects? (b) What is the tension in each of the two strings?

Example Problem
A skier is pulled up a slope at a constant velocity by a tow bar. The slope is inclined at 25.0° with respect to the horizontal. The force applied to the skier by the tow bar is parallel to the slope. The skier’s mass is 55.0 kg , and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.120. Find the magnitude of the force that the tow bar exerts on the skier.
Given: m = 55.0 kg, k = 0.120, = 25.0°
Infer: since velocity is constant, ax=0; also ay=0 since skier remains on slope
