Example: Coefficients of Friction When Colossus pushes a 2000 kg shipping box resting on a road, he exerts a force of 1800 N to start it sliding. Once it is sliding, he uses a force of only 1500 N to keep the shipping box moving with constant speed. What are the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the shipping box and the road?

Steps 1)Define When Colossus pushes a 2000 kg shipping box resting on a road, he exerts a force of 1800 N to start it sliding. Once it is sliding, he uses a force of only 1500 N to keep the shipping box moving with constant speed. What are the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the shipping box and the road?
5
Choose an equation or situation: Rearrange the equation to isolate the unknown: 2)Plan F n = mg because it is on a horizontal surface
6
Substitute the values into the equation and solve 3)Calculate Coefficient of frictions do not have units
7
The coefficient of static friction is.092 and coefficient of kinetic friction is.076. 4)Evaluate
