Kinetic Friction
`F_k = mu_k * N `
The Kinetic Friction calculator computes the force of kinetic friction that occurs when two objects are moving relative to each other and rub together.
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (μk) Kinetic Friction Coefficient
- (N) Normal Force
Kinetic Friction (Fk): The calculator computes the kinetic force of friction in Newtons. However, this can be automatically converted to other force units via the pull-down menu.
