Answer:

\mu_k = 0.15

Explanation:

according to the kinematic equation

v^{2} - u^{2} = 2aS

Where

u is initial velocity  = 0 m/s

a = acceleration

S is distance = 8.00 m

final velocity = 1.0 m/s

a = \frac {v^{2}}{2S}

a = \frac {1{2}}{2*8.6}

a = 0.058 m/s^2

from newton second law

Net force = ma

f_{net} = ma

F - f = ma

25 - \mu_kN = ma

25 - \mu_kmg = ma

\frac {25 - ma}{mg} =\mu_k

\frac {25 - 16*0.058}{16*9.81} = 0.15

\mu_k = 0.15

In order to slide a heavy desk across the floor at constant speed in a straight line, you have to exert a horizontal force of 40
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

F = f from Newton’s first law.

Explanation:

since the desk is moved in a straight line at a constant speed, newton first law tell us that the two forces must be equal.

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. since the table has been set in motion by the 400 N force, it will remain in motion unless it is been acted upon by an external force, and this means that the 400 N must be equal to the frictional force for it to have been in motion in the first instance.
