Answer:
0.5
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of object = 300N
Force of friction = 150N
Unknown:
Coefficient of friction = ?
Solution:
Frictional force is a force that resists the motion of a body.
It is mathematically expressed as;
frictional force = uN
Where u is the coefficient of friction
N = Normal force = weight of the object
Now input the parameters and find u;
150 = u x 300
u = [tex]\frac{150}{300}[/tex] = 0.5
The coefficient of friction here is 0.5
