Friction Coefficient of a Ladyfinger Banana Peel
The coefficient of static friction of a lady finger banana peel was investigated for varying values of vertical compression force. The peel was placed on a tile surface, with a person placing her Converse sneaker on the peel and pushing down with force ranging from approximately 100 N to 700 N. The...

| description | The coefficient of static friction of a lady finger banana peel was investigated for varying values of vertical compression force. The peel was placed on a tile surface, with a person placing her Converse sneaker on the peel and pushing down with force ranging from approximately 100 N to 700 N. The foot was pulled forward until it slipped, and the slipping force recorded. It was found that the coefficient of static friction of the banana peel is approximately 0.09 for compression forces below 600 N, and 0.15 for forces above 600 N. |
