Ms. Senko is moving a desk around her classroom, the desk weighs 125N.

The Coefficient of Static Friction between the desk legs and the floor is
0.35. The Coefficient of Kinetic Friction between the desk legs and the
floor is 0.23 WHAT IS THE FORCE OF FRICTION ON THE table as it is moving

Answer:

Static force of friction = 428.75 N

Kinetic Force of Friction = 281.75 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The static force of friction is equal to Coefficient of static Friction * Mass * g

= 0.35 *125 * 9.8

= 428.75 N

The Kinetic force of friction is equal to Coefficient of kinetic Friction * Mass * g

= 0.23 *125 * 9.8

= 281.75 N
