💡 Explanation:

Friction is the force that opposes motion between any surfaces that are in contact. There are four types of friction: static, sliding, rolling, and fluid friction. Static, sliding, and rolling friction occur between solid surfaces. Fluid friction occurs in liquids and gases.

The maximum limit of static friction is called limiting friction . So,the coefficient of static friction is usually more than that of sliding or kinetic friction. ... Static friction is greater because it works when two surfaces in contact are just to start a relative motion or are in rest.
