I push it, it's not moving.
-
But if I push hard enough it will move.
-
What's happening before it moves?
-
I'm applying a force and I'm getting nothing in return for it.
-
So I know there is another force opposing what I do,
-
and that's called "a force of static friction".
-
So, static friction is when the body is not moving.
-
So, I'm applying a force F.
-
Let me give it some other name, f.
-
No, that's also bad,
-
f was the name for friction.
-
So, I'm going to apply a force called Fme.
