What does my textbook mean by "the coefficient of static friction is a maximum value"? Suppose I have a non-moving box on the ground, does the coefficient change when it's moving vs. when it's non-moving? I also saw this: μkinetic < μstatic.

How do I solve this physic problem? I know that the normal force is going to be related to the pulling force but not sure how to proceed.
I don't understand why Fs <= Fk. What does the F in (1) and (2) stand for? If it's force applied, wouldn't F = Fs + Fk for box 2, and (F - Fs - Fk) = Fs for box 1? My thinking is that the Force applied on box 2 minus the force of kinetic friction and the force of static friction applied by Box 1 on 2 would equal to the net force. Then the net force of box 2 would cause the same netforce on box 1, if box 1 isn't moving, then it's Fs should be equal to that net force applied on box 1. Therefore Force applied wouldn't be equal to Static Friction Force, and shouldn't it be bigger than the Kinetic Friction Force since it's moving in the direction of Force applied?

A box of bananas weighing 40.0 NN rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.40 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. If no horizontal force is applied to the box and the box is at rest, how large is the friction force exerted on the box? My question, what is the equation to solve for the force of friction? what affect do the kinetic and static friction have on this?
In most of the problems you have dealt with so far, weight is equal in magnitude to that of the normal force. Is it possible for the normal force not to be equal to weight? Explain your answer. Yes, it is possible. Oftentimes, normal force counteracts the weight, thus making them equal. This happens when the object is situated on a horizontal surface and the force is exerted on the direction of the gravitational field. Otherwise, as in the case of an elevator accelerating downwards, N and W will not equalize. Yes, it is possible. Oftentimes, normal force counteracts the weight, thus making them equal. This happens when the object is situated on a vertical surface and the force is exerted on the direction of the gravitational field.
