Is this article the same as kinetic friction? -- Interiot 23:38, 1 December 2005 (UTC) reply

Yes (mostly). At school for kids you use this common speech and non-technicians too, which are majority of population. But people do not seldom use expression for static friction too, which is initial breaking force/friction. Synonym - deal as link to friction, after adding eplanation of expression to friction. -- 138.89.56.7 14:28, 24 May 2006 (UTC) Dieter reply

I reverted this edit primarily because it completely overwrote all wiki syntax, including stub and cat. Feel free to reinstate any appropriate text from it (while still keeping the cat/stub). -- Interiot 18:16, 25 May 2006 (UTC) reply

corrected spelling and grammer, removed non-wiki formatting from talk page -- Wavemaster447 02:42, 4 December 2006 (UTC) reply

Added info on rolling/static friction

The coefficient of friction for static friction is much greater than kinetic/sliding friction, and is thus better at stopping moving objects. Added this portion "However, rolling friction, or static friction, has a greater coefficient of friction, and thus is more effective than sliding friction at stopping an object from moving."

I think intranetusa mistakenly equates the terms rolling friction and static friction. I reverted his changes. See Talk:Rolling_resistance#Totally_incorrect_statement_regarding_static_vs_sliding_friction for a more detailed discussion. - Agyle 11:50, 9 October 2007 (UTC) reply

Merger proposal

There isn't very much here for a stand-alone article, and there won't be without copying a lot of the text that already exists in the Friction article. Instead of trying to clean up two articles, I'd rather work on just one. - AndrewDressel ( talk) 18:48, 1 May 2008 (UTC) reply

Merging

I kind of agree. It would be best to merge "sliding friction" and "Friction" together. this is very effective also for people who need to research on these topics. They don't have to keep looking around the site for everything about friction. All they'll need to do is type in "Friction."
