Why is force of limiting friction `F_(c)` greater than force of kinetic friction `F_(k)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Once the motion starts the inertia of rest is overcome. Further once motion takes place the irregularities of one surface have little time to get locked into the irregularities of ther other surface.
