Question

Ahsoka pulls a wounded soldier (mass 64 kg) across the ground with a force 18 Newtons. If they have an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2

Answer 1

Hello!

Let's applicate formula:

F - Ff = ma

How we dont know friction force, we descompose it in:

F - (μ * N) = ma

Now, lets replace (N = Is the normal force, or weight in this case):

18 N - (μ * (64 kg * 9,81 m/s²) = 64 kg * 1,5 m/s²

First, lets resolve parenthesis:

18 N - (μ * 627,84 N) = 96 N

The force happens to subtract:

- (μ * 627,84 N = 96 N - 18 N

-μ = 78 N / 627,84 N

-μ = 0,124

The value of μk = 0,124

Answer 2

Answer:

0.124

Explanation:

18-(9.81*64)*k=64*1.5
