Static Friction - Prevents from Sliding

Static Friction - Frictional forces are interlocking forces it is threshold of motion, coefficient of static friction is larger than kinetic friction. Static friction prevents an object from sliding down, this online calculator has been developed to calculate kinetic friction.

Static Friction

To calculate Static Friction:

  • What you want to calculate

  • Static Friction Coefficient(μs)

  • Normal Force(N)

    N

  • Static Friction(Fs)

    N

  •  

Formula:
Static Friction:


Static Friction Coefficient:


Normal Force:


where,
μs = Static Friction Coefficient,
N = Normal Force.
