Sliding friction, or more formally known as Dynamic Friction, or Kinetic Friction, is a resistive force that arises when one object is in contact with another object and the objects are in motion with respect to each other. Friction is called a resistive force because it always resists, or pushes against, the initial force causing the motion.

.

The factors that affect the magnitude of dynamic friction are:

  • the coefficient of dynamic friction between the two bodies; and
  • the magnitude of the original force responsible for the motion.

What are different forms of friction?

Static friction and sliding friction. Static friction is the force that stops a mass from sliding and sliding friction is the force that slows down an object that is already sliding. Static friction is stronger than sliding friction, and this difference is reflected in different coefficients of friction for sliding and static friction for a given surface.
