Answer:
Static friction depends on the mass of the object.
Explanation:
Friction is the force between two surfaces in contact. The force of friction between two surfaces in contact depends on;
1) nature of the object and the surface(how rough or smooth the surfaces are)
2)surface area of the object and the surface
3) mass of the object
Since;
F=μmg
Where;
μ= coefficient of static friction
m= mass of the object
g= acceleration due to gravity
Hence, as the mass of the object increases, the magnitude of static friction force between an object and a surface increases and vice versa.
