Determining the Coefficient of Static Friction

• Analyze free body diagrams to determine the forces on a wooden block on a flat surface.
• Analyze free body diagrams to determine the forces on a wooden block on an inclined surface.
• Investigate the relationship between the coefficient of static friction and surface area of contact.
• Investigate the relationship between Friction Force and Normal Force.
• Determine the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and different smooth surfaces.
