The force of friction between two blocks is related to which of the following two factors?

A. inertia and weight

B. sliding friction and coefficient of friction

C. coefficient of friction and normal force

D. coefficient of friction and air resistance

1 answer

The correct answer is:

C. coefficient of friction and normal force

The force of friction between two surfaces depends on the coefficient of friction (which is a measure of how much frictional force exists between the surfaces) and the normal force (which is the perpendicular force exerted by a surface to support the weight of an object resting on it).
