Answer:
Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.235
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of crate = 330 kg
1st force = 430 N
2nd force = 330 N
Find:
Coefficient of kinetic friction.
Computation:
We know that, velocity is constant.
So, acceleration (a) = 0
So, net force (f) = 430 N + 330 N
Net force (f) = 760 N
F = μmg
μ = f / mg [∵ g = 9.8]
μ = 760 / [330 × 9.8]
μ = 760 / [3,234]
μ = 0.235
Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.235
