An Accurate Technique for Finding the Coefficient of Rolling Friction Using the Inclined Plane Method
Finding the coefficient of rolling friction (CRF) by the inclined plane method is similar to the manner used in establishing the coefficient of sliding friction. For the rolling case, the difficulty arises from the fact that the usual devices employed in angular measurements present errors greater than the effective angle. The paper surmounts...
