The Friction Force calculator computes force of friction based on a friction coefficient and velocity of the object .

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

(b) Friction Coefficient
(v) Velocity

Friction Force (F): The force is returned in Newtons (N). However, these can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

The Friction Force is found using the following formula:

`F = -bv`

where:

`F` = Friction Force
`b` = frictional drag force
`v` = velocity
