Question

A force of 10. Newtons toward the right is exerted on a wooden crate initially moving to the right on a horizontal wooden floor. The crate weighs 25 newtons. Calculate the magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the floor.

Answer 1

The magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the floor is calculated to be  5 N.

What is force of friction?

Force generated by two surfaces that contact and slide against each other is referred to as frictional force.

Given: A force of 10 N towards right is exerted on a wooden crate initially moving to the right on horizontal wooden floor and weight of crate is 25 N

The magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the floor is given as ;

F= μ* m * g

=  0.2 * 25

= 5N

The magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the floor is 5 N.
