Key Features

Multiple Friction Calculators: Seamlessly switch between eight specialized calculators to compute:

General Friction: Solve for friction force (f), coefficient of friction (μ), normal force (N), or use mass (m) and gravity (g) for versatile calculations.

Kinetic Friction: Calculate kinetic friction forces for objects in motion.

Static Friction: Determine maximum static friction to prevent motion.

Rolling Friction: Analyze friction for rolling objects like wheels or bearings.

Fluid Friction: Compute friction in fluid environments using velocity.

Custom Friction: Input custom factors for unique friction scenarios.

Drag Friction: Calculate aerodynamic drag with air density, velocity, and area.

Viscous Friction: Evaluate viscous forces in fluids with viscosity and area.

Intuitive Tabbed Interface: Navigate effortlessly through dedicated tabs for each friction type, each featuring a clear, visually appealing layout with distinct color schemes.

Flexible Input Options:

Choose from various units for force (e.g., N, kN, lbf) and velocity (e.g., m/s, km/h).

Select planetary gravity values (e.g., Earth, Mars, Moon) for gravity-based calculations, perfect for astrophysics or planetary science applications.

Customize significant figures (auto, 1–4) for precise results tailored to your needs.

Smart Calculations: Input your known values, and SlabCalc instantly computes the unknown, with real-time validation to ensure accurate inputs and avoid errors.
