Bowden and Tabor formulated a law for this force by using asperities.
Bowden and Tabor formulated a law for this force by using asperities. The Stribeck curve is used to categorize the properties of this force. For metals in a vacuum, this force can create a "cold weld." The stick-slip phenomenon is due to this force. One form of this force is also known as the Coloumb type. According to (*) Amontons' first law, this force is proportional to the normal force. The coefficient of this force, symbolized mu, is usually higher for its static form than its kinetic form. This force increases with the roughness of surfaces. For 10 points, name this force on objects in contact that opposes motion.
