Question

Weight of body is double then coefficient of friction will be

Answer 1

Hey mate!

Here's your answer!!

The coefficient of friction depends only on the surfaces in contact and is independent of the force with which the surfaces are in touch with each other. So, the coefficient of friction remains unchanged even when the weight of the body is doubled.

Hope it helps you!

Answer 2

Hi there

Hence it won't change if Weight is doubled. On the other hand, force of friction will become double if the weight is doubled as now the normal reaction force will be doubled. Weight of the body is doubled. ... This shows that coefficient of friction doubles, when weight of the body is doubled.


Thank You
