Name: Static Friction vs. Sliding Friction

Category: Mechanics

Subcategory: Applications of Newton's Laws

Classes:

Comments: A wood block on a wood plane is used to show that the coefficient of static friction is larger than the coefficient of moving friction. A force probe, wood block, weights demonstrate rules governing friction.

Equipment: Force probe, Weights
