  1. Coefficient of friction(#mu#), between the surfaces of the two body.
  2. The normal force(#f_N#).

Explanation:

Basically frictional force(#f#) depends :-

  1. On the types of surfaces involved, for different surfaces, the
    Coefficient of friction is different.

  2. How hard to surfaces push each other together, basically the
    Normal force.

Frictional force (#f#)= #mu#*#f_N#
