Answer: 0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces exerted on the bookcase is equal to the product between the mass (m) and the acceleration (a):

where
F = 58 N is the force applied
Ff is the frictional force
Substituting, we find the frictional force

The frictional force has the form:

where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction. Re-arranging the formula, we can find the coefficient:
