Engg. Mechanics Friction

The document discusses the concepts of friction including static friction, kinetic friction, limiting friction, coefficient of friction, angle of friction, angle of repose, and Coulomb's laws of friction. It provides examples of how to calculate the minimum force required to move an object on an inclined plane or lift a block using a wedge based on the coefficient of friction. Worked problems are included to demonstrate how to apply the principles of friction to determine minimum horizontal or lifting forces.

Chapter-Friction
Let’s Begin

2
“ When a body moves or tends to move
over another body, aforce opposing the
motion develops at contact
surface .This force oppose the
movement or tendancy to move ,it’s
called Frictional force or Friction

3
Cause of Friction

▰ Friction is due to minutely projecting


particles on the contact surface.
▰ Friction force has a property of adjusting
itself in magnitude to the force producing
motion or (tends to produce motion), so that
motion is prevented.
▰ But it does have a limitation though.

4
Limiting Friction(fl)
The maximum value of friction force that can
be developed at the contact surface when the
body is just on the point of movement is called
limiting friction.

5
Classification of Friction

Static Friction Dynamic Friction


When applied load is less than When the value of applied
limiting friction body will force exceeds the limiting
remain at rest ,such friction is friction then body starts
known as Static Friction. moving over another body and
frictional force experienced by
body is called Dynamic
Friction.

Classification of Kinetic Friction

Laws of Friction/Static Friction(Coulomb’s Law of
friction)

▰ The force of friction always acts in a direction, opposite to that in which


the body tends to move, if the force of friction would have been absent.
▰ 2. The magnitude of the force of friction is exactly equal to the force,
which tends to move the body.
▰ 3. The magnitude of the limiting friction bears a constant ratio to the
normal reaction between the two surfaces.
▰ 4. The force of friction is independent of the area of contact between the
two surfaces.
▰ 5. The force of friction depends upon the roughness of the surfaces.

Problems

▰ W1=1000N 2.What is the value of P when P is making


30 degree upward from horizontal?
▰ W2=2000N
▰ µ1=0.25 1

▰ µ2=1/3

▰ 1.What is the value of P when it is horizontal? 15

👉Two blocks A and B of weights 1 kN and 2 kN
respectively are in equilibrium position as shown in Fig

▰ If the coefficient of friction between the two blocks as well as the block
B and the floor is 0.3,
▰ find the force (P) required to move the block B.

Problems

▰ A body of weight 500 N is lying on a rough plane inclined at an angle


of25° with the horizontal. It is supported by an effort (P) parallel to the
plane as shown in Fig. Determine the minimum and maximum values of
P, for which the equilibrium can exist, if the angle of friction is 20° .

WEDGE FRICTION

▰ A wedge is, usually, of a triangular or trapezoidal in cross-


section. It is, generally, used for slight adjustments in the
position of a body i.e. for tightening fits or keys for shafts.
Sometimes, a wedge is also used for lifting heavy weights
as shown in Fig

22
Problem

▰ A block weighing 1500 N, overlying a 10°


wedge on a horizontal floor and leaning
against a vertical wall, is to be raised by
applying a horizontal force to the wedge.
Assuming the coefficient of friction between
all the surface in contact to be 0.3,
determine the minimum horizontal force
required to raise the block.
