Drupady [299]

Answer:

u_K=0.862

Explanation:

The force of friction between the quails feet and the ground is:

F=m*a

F_K=m*a

F_K=u_k*m*g

u_K*m*g=m*a_c

u_K*g=a

u_K=\frac{a_c}{g}

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

So the coefficient of static is solve

u_K=\frac{\frac{v^2}{r}}{g}

u_K=\frac{v^2}{r*g}=\frac{(2.6m/s)^2}{0.80m*9.8m/s^2}

u_K=0.862
