Why coefficient of friction is the ratio of limiting friction to the normal reaction? Please explain.

Can anyone explain limiting friction?

Dhaval Tandel said:   8 years ago
In question, it was not mentioned limiting friction FORCE.

Kartik said:   8 years ago
The limiting friction is the maximum frictional force that can arise before an object begins to slide.

@Amogh.

The body begin to slide and experience the friction known as limiting friction.

Can anyone tell what is limiting friction?

Amogh said:   9 years ago
What is limiting friction?

f = Coefficient of friction*Normal reaction.

So Coefficient of friction = f/Normal reaction.

PRAKASH said:   1 decade ago
Coefficient of friction = F/N.
Now, Limit friction = F.
Normal reaction = N.
Then, c.o.f is the ratio of l.f/n.r i.e; c.o.f = F/N.

Limit friction = mue*n;
Normal reaction = n;

Coefficient of friction = limit friction/normal reaction.
= mue*n/n;
= mue;
