This tag is for the classical concept of forces, i.e. the quantities causing an acceleration of a body. It expands to the strong/electroweak force only insofar as they act comparable to ‘classical’ forces. Use the [particle-physics] tag for decay channels due to forces and [newtonian-mechanics] or one of the other subtopics of [classical-mechanics] for the dynamics of classical systems.

Direction of friction vector when acceleration is zero

The direction of kinetic friction is in the opposite direction of the velocity of the box and independent from acceleration thus whether the $\mathbf a$ is positive, negative or zero does not affect t …
