Friction Force Calculator

Compute friction force F_f = μ·N from coefficient and normal force.

Input Data

Coefficient
Normal Force N
N

Results

F_f = μ·N.
30N
Confirmed μ.
0.3
Confirmed N.
100N

At a glance:F_f = μ·N (kinetic or static max). Complements normal-force and coefficient-of-friction.

Formula

F_f = μ·N.

$$f = \mu N, \quad f_{s,\max} = \mu_s N, \quad f_k = \mu_k N, \quad N = mg\cos\theta$$

How to Use

  1. Enter μ and normal force.
  2. The tool returns the friction force.

Case Studies

μ=0.3, N=100

F_f = 30 N.

FAQ

Static vs kinetic?

Static μ_s > kinetic μ_k; static caps the applied force before motion.
