Coefficient of friction!?
How would you figure out the coefficient of sliding friction between two sheets of paper ?.
I intended to make a ramp out of one paper and and put the other paper on top of the ramp. Adjust the angle until the paper slide down. Take the tangent of the angle when the paper slide down to find the coefficient of friction.
Is this the right way to approach this problem?
Thank you,
