m = mass of the person = 82 kg
g = acceleration due to gravity acting on the person = 9.8 m/s²
F = normal force by the surface on the person
f = kinetic frictional force acting on the person by the surface
μ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.45
The normal force by the surface in upward direction balances the weight of the person in down direction , hence
F = mg eq-1
kinetic frictional force on the person acting is given as
f = μ F
using eq-1
f = μ mg
inserting the values
f = (0.45) (82) (9.8)
f = 361.6 N
