Two workers are sliding 450 kg kg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 380 NN while the other pulls in the same direction with a force of 230 NN using a rope connected to the crate. Both forces are horizontal, and the crate slides with a constant speed. What is the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor

The coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.138

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the crate, m = 450 kg

force applied by the first worker, F₁ = 380 N

force applied by the second worker in the same direction as the first worker, F₁ = 230 N

frictional force opposing the motion of the box = -

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

∑F = ma

If the crate slides with constant speed, acceleration is zero (0).

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.138

(75°f − 32) × 5/9 = 23.889°c

the first american roller coaster was the mauch chunk switchback railway, built in the mountains of pennsylvania in the mid-1800s. the track, originally built to send coal to a railway, was reconfigured as a "scenic tour."
