Question

explain why sliding friction is less than static friction??

Answer 1

The sliding friction is less than static friction because of the interlocking of irregularities in the two surfaces. When the object starts sliding the contact points on its surface, do not get enough time to lock into the contact points on the floor. So the sliding friction is slightly less than the static friction.

Answer 2

✔Sliding friction is less than static friction becoz in sliding friction less force is required to overcome this interlocking.
