(Static coefficient of friction)
Cf = horizontal force (newtons) required to overcome static resistance / vertical force (newtons) due to objects mass * acceleration due to gravity.
Note:
Moving friction coefficient is generally less.

What is the formula for the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Ukn
What factors determine the coefficient of friction?
quality of the Surface is affected to the Coefficient of friction
What is the coefficient of friction of linoleum rubber?
You need two different materials to determine the coefficient of friction. Without another material you cannot know what the coefficient of friction is.
What the value of abs plastic static friction coefficient?
With what material? Coefficient of friction is for two materials.
Is the coefficient of friction the same as when the block was standing on its larger (or smaller) end?
The coefficient of friction is the same in this case.
What is the formula for the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Ukn
Is there a formula for friction?
simple one is: max friction = coefficient of static friction*normal force
What is the mathematical equation for friction?
An important formula is that friction = (coefficient of friction) x (normal force).
What is coeffitient of stactic n kinetic friction?
The coefficient of static or kinetic friction depends on the surfaces that are causing friction. The formula for it is: force of friction over normal force.
Is the coefficient of friction up to 13 unit?
No. Coefficient of friction is not measured in units.
What factors determine the coefficient of friction?
quality of the Surface is affected to the Coefficient of friction
What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two surfaces?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the types of surfaces involved and on how hard the surfaces push together.
Is coefficient of friction or coefficient of limiting friction are same?
Limiting friction is just the maximum static friction force (if you go over that point static friction becomes kinetic friction).Let f = frictional force,c = coefficient of frictionN = Normal forcefmax = cN = limiting frictionAlthough the term coefficient of limiting friction is not really used, I'd assume it would just be "c" (it's a coefficient after all). So they would be the same.If you meant is coefficient of friction the same as limiting friction, than the answer is no. Coefficient of friction is just the "c" in the equation. Limiting friction however is the product of the coefficient and the normal force.
What is the coefficient of friction of linoleum rubber?
You need two different materials to determine the coefficient of friction. Without another material you cannot know what the coefficient of friction is.
I want to calculate how many Newtons it takes to drag a sticky tennis shoe sole over linoleum. What formula do I use?
You use the formula of finding force of friction. The eq'n is: Force of friction = the coefficient of friction multiplied by normal force.
What are the units that friction is measured in?
The coefficient of friction is dimensionless; it has no units.
What the value of abs plastic static friction coefficient?
With what material? Coefficient of friction is for two materials.
