The image above represents the angle of friction. One essential parameter is needed to calculate the angle of friction, which is co-efficient of friction (μ).
The formula for calculating angle of friction:
β = tan-1(μ)
Where:
β = Angle of Friction
μ = Co-efficient of Friction
Let’s solve an example;
Find the angle of friction when the co-efficient of friction is 21.
This implies that;
μ = Co-efficient of Friction = 21
That is, β = tan-1(μ)
β = tan-1(21)
β = 87.27
Therefore, the angle of friction is 87.27°.
