Problem 2Here on Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s² straightdown, a person pushes a 10 kg cubic block across a table by applying ahorizontal force of magnitude 25 N. Kinetic friction opposes the appliedforce and the block accelerates at a rate of 1.2 m/s². What must be thecoefficient of kinetic friction for the pair of materials comprising the blockand the table?
