  In this study, with the help of the Arduino UNO and Load-cell force sensor, a
simple experimental material has been developed to calculate kinetic and static
friction coefficients and analyse the friction force in detail. The system with
a force sensor mounted on it is placed on the plane. With the help of the rope
attached to the force sensor, a force, whose magnitude increased over time, was
applied on the sensor. After the force applied was large enough to move the
system, the force was applied to move the system at a constant speed. Since the
net force acting on the system is zero while the system is stationary and
moving with a constant speed, in these cases the magnitudes of force read
through the sensor are equal to the static and kinetic friction forces acting
on the object. Using these static and kinetic friction forces values, the
maximum value of the static friction coefficient and the kinetic friction
coefficient were calculated as 0.484 and 0.313, respectively.
