Phys101 Physics I: Frictional Force

This document provides an overview of frictional force in physics. It is divided into three main sections: 1) Frictional force opposes motion and is divided into static and kinetic friction. Static friction is usually greater than kinetic friction. 2) There are static and kinetic friction regions. Static friction acts until an applied force exceeds the maximum static friction force, at which point motion begins and kinetic friction takes over. 3) Several example problems are provided to demonstrate calculating minimum static friction, acceleration on an inclined plane with friction, and the accelerations of coupled masses on an inclined plane. References are also included.

It is opposite to movement. Frictional force is divided into
kinetic (𝜇𝑘 ) and static (𝜇𝑆 ). Usually static friction force is
greater than kinetic friction force (𝜇𝑠 ) > (𝜇𝑘 ).

𝐹𝑘 = 𝜇𝑘 𝑁 ⇒ 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑚𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
0 < 𝐹𝑠 < 𝜇𝑠 𝑁 ⇒ 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑛𝑜 𝑚𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛

𝐹𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝜇𝑠 𝑁 ⇒ Motion starts

EXAMPLES

Q1) An object with m mass is moving on the inclined plane.
Find acceleration of the object.

5
S1)
𝑥 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 = 𝑚𝑎

𝑦 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑁 − 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 0

𝑎 = 𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃

6
Q2) What is the minimum 𝝁𝒔 so that m doesn't
slide?

7
S2)

𝑥 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝑓𝑠 = 0

𝑦 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑁 − 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 0

(𝑓𝑠 )𝑚𝑎𝑥 = (𝜇𝑠 )𝑚𝑖𝑛 𝑁

𝑓𝑠 = 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃

𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑖𝑛 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃

𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 𝑡𝑎𝑛𝜃

8
Q3) What is the acceleration of the system ?

9
S3)

𝑥 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝑓𝑘 = 𝑚𝑎

𝑦 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑁 − 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 0

𝑓𝑘 = 𝜇𝑘 𝑁 = 𝜇𝑘 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃

10
Q4) Find 𝒇𝒎𝒊𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒇𝒎𝒂𝒙 so that m mass doesn’t move
upwards or downward?

11
S4) If the F force is reduced after 𝒇𝒎𝒊𝒏 force (when F is
larger than 𝒇𝒎𝒊𝒏 ), the object slides down.

𝑥 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝑓𝑠 − 𝑓𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 0
𝑦 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑁 − 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 0
𝑓𝑠 = 𝜇𝑠 𝑁 = 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃
𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 − 𝑓𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 0
𝑓𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 − 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃
𝒇𝒎𝒊𝒏 = 𝒎𝒈(𝒔𝒊𝒏𝜽 − 𝝁𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒔𝜽)

12
S4) If the F force is increased, it will shift upwards after 𝒇𝒎𝒂𝒙
force.
𝑥 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 + 𝑓𝑠 − 𝑓𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 0

𝑦 − 𝑒𝑘 ∶ 𝑁 − 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 = 0

𝑓𝑠 = 𝜇𝑠 𝑁 = 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃

𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 + 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃 − 𝑓𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 0

𝑓𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝑚𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛𝜃 + 𝜇𝑠 𝑚𝑔𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃

𝒇𝒎𝒂𝒙 = 𝒎𝒈(𝒔𝒊𝒏𝜽 + 𝝁𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒔𝜽)

13
Q5) What is acceleration of each mass ?

14
S5

𝒙 − 𝒂𝒙 ∶ 𝑻 − 𝒇𝒌 = 𝟐𝒎𝒂𝟏 𝒙 − 𝒂𝒙: 𝒇𝒌 = 𝟒𝒎𝒂𝟐 𝒚 − 𝒂𝒙: 𝑻 − 𝟔𝒎𝒈 = −𝟔𝒎𝒂𝟏


𝒚 − 𝒂𝒙: 𝑵𝟏 − 𝟐𝒎𝒈 = 𝟎 𝒚 − 𝒂𝒙: 𝑵𝟐 − 𝑵𝟏 − 𝟒𝒎𝒈 = 𝟎
𝑻 = 𝟔𝒎𝒈 − 𝟔𝒎𝒂𝟏 (𝟐)
𝑵𝟏 = 𝟐𝒎𝒈 𝒇𝒌 = 𝝁𝒌 𝟐𝒎𝒈 = 𝟒𝒎𝒂𝟐
𝒇𝒌 = 𝝁𝒌 𝑵𝟏 = 𝝁𝒌 𝟐𝒎𝒈 𝟏
𝑻 − 𝟐𝒎𝒈𝝁𝒌 = 𝟐𝒎𝒂𝟏 𝒂𝟐 = 𝝁𝒌 𝒈 (𝟑)
𝟐

𝑻 = 𝟐𝒎𝒈𝝁𝒌 + 𝟐𝒎𝒂𝟏 (𝟏)

15
If we equate (1) and (2) ;

𝑇 = 2𝑚𝑔𝜇𝑘 + 2𝑚𝑎1 = 6𝑚𝑔 − 6𝑚𝑎1

𝑔𝜇𝑘 + 𝑎1 = 3 − 3𝑎1

𝟑 − 𝒈𝝁𝒌 𝟓 𝟏 𝟏
𝒂𝟏 = 𝒗𝒆 𝝁𝒌 = 𝟎, 𝟓 ⟹ 𝒂𝟏 = 𝒈 𝒗𝒆 𝟑 𝒂𝟐 = 𝝁𝒌 𝒈 = 𝒈
𝟒 𝟖 𝟐 𝟒
