Static friction between two surfaces:

Why is the coefficient of static friction considered a property of the surfaces in contact?

If ${\mu _s}$,${\mu _k}$,and ${\mu _r}$ are coefficients of static friction,sliding (kinetic) friction,and rolling friction respectively,then:

The maximum value of static friction is called:

As shown in the figure, a block of mass $10 \ kg$ lying on a horizontal surface is pulled by a force $F$ acting at an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. For $\mu_{s} = 0.25$, the block will just start to move for the value of $F$: [Given $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$] (in $N$)
