Sophia: Common Coefficients of Static Friction: Lesson 2
This lesson provides the learner with the coefficients of static friction for some common surfaces. It is 2 of 2 in the series titled "Common Coefficients of Static Friction."
TeachEngineering
Teach Engineering: Sliders (For High School)
In this hands-on activity, students learn about two types of friction - static and kinetic - and the equation that governs them. They also measure the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction experimentally.
