Answer:

F = 250 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of an object, m = 50 kg

The coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.5'

We need to find the force of kinetic friction. The kinetic friction is given by the formula as follows :


F=\mu N

N is normal force, N = mg


F=0.5* 50* 10\\\\F=250\ N

Hence, the force of kinetic friction is 250 N. Hence, the correct option is (d).
