draw a graph explaining how static coefficient of friction is greater than the kinetic friction.
Added by Joan P.
Step 1
Static coefficient of friction (μs) is the maximum amount of friction force that can be exerted between two surfaces in contact before one starts sliding over the other. It represents the resistance to motion when the surfaces are at rest. Kinetic friction (μk) Show more…

Describe a situation. For each problem identify all the forces acting on the object and draw a free-body diagram of the object. A box is being dragged across the floor at a constant speed by a rope pulling horizontally on it. Friction is not negligible.
