Kinetic friction

Input(s)

\(\mu_{\mathrm{s}}\): Static Viscosity \((\mathrm{cP})\)

a: Constant of Friction in X Direction (dimensionless)

\(\mathrm{g}\): Acceleration Due to Gravity \(\left(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)\)

Output(s)

\(\varphi\): Angle of Friction (rad)

\(\mu_{\mathrm{k}}\): Kinetic Viscosity (cP)

Formula(s)

\[ \begin{gathered} \varphi=\tan \left(\mu_{\mathrm{s}}\right) \\ \mu_{\mathrm{k}}=\mu_{\mathrm{s}}-\left(\frac{\mathrm{a}}{\mathrm{g} * \sin (\varphi)}\right) \end{gathered} \]
