Is the static coefficient of friction between two surfaces an extensive or intensive property? Explain why. Is the hardness of 1040 steel an extensive or intensive property? Explain why.
Solution
Coefficient of friction is same for same materials are contact even if you change remaining parameters except material
So it is intensive property
Hardness of any material don\'t change with the size of sample
So it is also intensive property
