Kinetic Friction Coefficient
Kinetic friction coefficient, abbreviated as \(\mu_k\), a dimensionless number, also called coefficient of kinetic friction, is the amount of force that resists motion at a constant velocity.
Kinetic Friction Coefficient formula
\(\large{ \mu_k = \frac {f_k}{F_n} }\) |
Where:
\(\large{ \mu_k }\) (Greek symbol mu) = kinetic friction coefficient
\(\large{ f_k }\) = kinetic friction
\(\large{ F_n }\) = normal force
