State the empirical laws of static and kinetic friction.

उत्तर
The empirical laws of friction are:
- Friction is independent of the surface of contact.
- The coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of static friction.
- The direction of frictional force is always opposite to the motion of one body over the other.
- Frictional force always acts on the object parallel to the surface on which the object is placed,
- The magnitude of frictional force between any two bodies in contact is directly proportional to the normal reaction between them.
