We were researching static friction, so that's great. thanks.

So would the result I recorded for the force required to overcome friction be the magnitude of the force of friction?

Homework Statement We have to investigate a factor that affects friction. For my expiriment, I placed a wooden block on a flat surface, and increased the force pulling the object using a Newton meter until the block moved. I increased the mass and the force required to pull it increased...
