- (Solution Needed) 1. A block weighing 400 N is pulled along a level from at a constant speed by a rope which makes 40° with respect to the horizontal floor. What is coefficient of sliding friction if the force on the rope is 220 N? (Needs A solution)arrow_forwardAnswers should be in 6 decimal placesarrow_forwardA block of concrete weighs 20 kg, it takes 40 N to start the block sliding on a concrete floor and 10 N to maintain sliding. Calculate the Static coefficiant of friction and calculate the kinetci coefficiant of friction My question is; what is the coefficiant of static and kinetic friction. Ive read throught the book and cant seem to find anything that explains it. I found a formula which reads F = Static coefficiant multiplied by the weight of the block. But that doesnt tell me exactly what the coeffciant of each is, Is it a constant? or does it vary based on the item being moved? Thank you.arrow_forward
