A static friction force \( \boldsymbol{F}_{\text s} \) acts when two surfaces are in contact and movement or displacement is prevented: \( v = 0 \). The static friction force is proportional to the normal force \( \boldsymbol{F}_{\text N} \), where the proportionality factor is the static friction coefficient \( \class{green}{\mu_{\text s}} \).
