Kinetic Friction Calculator

To find the value of kinetic friction, Insert the values of kinetic friction coefficient and normal force into the kinetic friction calculator.

Table of Contents:

This online kinetic friction calculator is used to calculate the kinetic friction between two objects.

You can use this calculator to find any of these three values, by inputting the value of the remaining two.

What is Kinetic Friction?

Definition of Kinetic friction is:

"The resistance to motion caused by the contact between a surface and the object moving against it."

For example, friction between a wooden block and a stick when it is twirled forcefully to make smoke is said to be kinetic friction.

kinetic

On the other hand, a force of friction that keeps an object at rest is known as static friction.

The equation for kinetic friction is

F_k = μ_kx N

Here,

Example:

Calculate the frictional force for the given details.

Kinetic Friction Coefficient (μ_k) = 5

Normal Force (N) = 10 N

Solution:

Put the value into the formula.

F_k = μ_kx N

= 5 x 10

= 50 N
