Explain the difference between static and kinetic friction.

Static friction is stronger than kinetic friction.

Static friction only occurs on rough surfaces, while kinetic friction occurs on smooth surfaces.

Static friction always opposes the motion of an object, while kinetic friction can either oppose or assist the motion of an object.

Static friction is for objects at rest, while kinetic friction is for objects in motion.
