Question 1182425: What is the friction force on a Box that has a mass of 15 kg as it slides across the floor. The coefficient of friction of the not so clean floor is 0.25 Answer by ikleyn(52772) (Show Source):
Friction force is the product of the weight of the box by the coefficient of friction.
The weight is m*g = 15 kg * 10 m/s^2 = 150 newtons;
the friction force is 150 newtons * 0.25 = 37.5 newtons. ANSWER
