Step 2: Now click the button “Calculate the Unknown” to get the result

Step 3: Finally, the static friction force will be displayed in the output field

What is Meant by Static Friction?

In Physics, friction is the force that resists the movement of an object. The friction can be classified into many types. Static friction is one among them. The static friction is defined as the force that keeps the object at rest. It is the self-regulating force. The static friction value ranges between zero and the smallest force which needs to start the motion. The formula to calculate the static friction is given as:

Static Friction = Normal Force x Static Friction coefficient.

For example, if the normal force is 200 N and the coefficient of the friction is 0.3, then the static friction is calculated as

Static friction = 200 x 0.3

Static friction = 60 N.
