Alexandra is dragging her 37.8 kg golden retriever cross the wooden floor by applying a horizontal force. What force must be applied to move a dog with a constant speed of 1 m/s? The coefficient of kinetic friction between the dog in the floor is one point

F = 385.56 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 37.8 kg

He applies a horizontal force and cross the wooden floor.

We need to find the force that must be applied to move a dog with a constant speed of 1 m/s.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the dog in the floor is 1.02.

The net force acting on it is given by :

F = f- μmg

f is force due to constant speed, f = 0 (since, a = 0)

F = μmg

= 1.02 × 37.8 × 10

= 385.56 N

Hence, the required force is 385.56 N.

the answer would be 32*f
