1. If you use an applied force of 45N to slide a 12Kg wooden crate across a floor at a constant velocity, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.38 (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Applied force = 45 N

Mass of wooden crate = 12 kg

Find:

Coefficient of kinetic friction

Computation:

Coefficient of kinetic friction = Applied force / (Mass)(Acceleration due to gravity)

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 45 / (12)(9.8)

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 45 / 117.6

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.3826

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.38 (Approx.)

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
