Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the man, R = 725 N

The coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15

The maximum force of friction between the man and the chair is calculated as:


\begin{gathered} F_r=\mu R \\ \\ F_r=0.15*725 \\ \\ F_r=108.75N \\ \\ F_r=109N\text{ \lparen to the nearest whole number\rparen} \end{gathered}
