Abstract
This paper aims to explain the basic physics concept of friction in a better way as it highlights the behavior of the body during motion considering the effect of friction. The paper combines physics and mathematics with equations and graphs. The investigation focuses the characteristics of a body in motion by keeping eye on friction by making graphical approach and also by quantitative study. The research establishes certain facts and points on friction. It establishes certain equations which helps the concept to understand better. A simple demonstration has been made for better understanding the concept. MATLAB software is used to draw the graphs. An algorithm has also been framed for step by step understanding and bringing clarity to the concept.
