Friction force

N

This free Friction Calculator covers Kinetic/static friction magnitude F = μ N.

Friction force is the friction coefficient times the normal force. Related physics tools sit beside How it works, with no account required.

Using the Friction Calculator

Kinetic/static friction magnitude F = μ N. Typical inputs are Friction coefficient μ and Normal force N (N). How it works beside the form states the identity the Friction Calculator applies.

FAQ

How do I use the Friction Calculator?

Open the Friction Calculator, fill Friction coefficient μ and Normal force N (N), and read the result. Multiply μ by normal force.

What formula does the Friction Calculator use?
