Objects that are in contact can also experience friction without moving with respect
to each other. This form of friction is called static friction. This force will arise when
some other interaction tries to produce slipping at the surface of contact. Static
friction will resist this process.

where the inequality indicates that sNAB is the maximum size that the
static friction force between objects A and B can have.
When static friction is acting, it is generally less than its maximum value.
Only when the system is "on the verge of slipping" or "just before slipping
begins" does static friction attain its maximum value.
