Having your hands touch. Anything where things aren't moving, they are just touching.

If you are asking about Coulomb Friction, static friction is the resistance to movement (sliding) of one object over another when force is applied but there is no movement. Once the objects begin to move in relationship to each other (slide) the force required is lessened and dynamic friction is in play. Static friction requires a greater force to get an object moving, dynamic friction requires a lesser force to keep the object moving.

3 examples of static friction?

One example of static friction is the inability to push a car parked down the street. Another example is a block on an inclined table that does not slide. Last example is the pushing of a couch. Static friction is provided by the slippers which allows for gripping the floor.

What are the examples of limiting friction?

If limiting friction is the same as static friction, then I have an answer, because static friction means that the objects in contact do not move. For example, if you place a box on the table, it does not move, as there is static friction between the box and the table.


What type of friction holds thingsin place?

It provides static friction, so the object cannot move until the static friction is overcome. For example, if the object at rest had 5N static friction, it would take 5.1N to make the object start moving.


Is walking an example of static friction?

Walking is an example of static energy because the sepatomic particles from your body react with the surface your walking on to cause static friction. Source: My Year 12 science teacher Hope it helped :)
