If the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 22- kg crate and the floor is 0.30, what horizontal force is required to mive the crate at a steady soeed across the floor? what horizontal force is required if it is zero?

Horizontal force to move the crate at a steady speed across the floor is 64.746 N

There is no horizontal force when coefficient of friction is zero.

Given :

Mass = 22 kg

Coefficient of friction = 0.30

a = 0, because crate moving at a steady speed.

Solution :

Horizontal force to move the crate at a steady speed across the floor is,

F = ma                   (According to Newton's second law)

         (since acceleration is zero)

Now, when coefficient of friction is zero than friction force is also zero. Therefore horizontal force is,

F = 0

So, there is no horizontal force when coefficient of friction is zero.

you cant move and you feel like someones pushing you down onto your bed it can feel like you want to get up but you just can't it can be extremely scary
