Finding Friction? (PHYSICS)?
it takes 100 n of force to push a heavy box across the floor at constant speed. the mass of the box is 50 kg?
Normal force = 490.5N
Could someone show me how to do this step by step?

Constant speed means the acceleration is 0, so the net force is 0. The force of friction exactly equals the pushing force of 100 N.
The coefficient of kinetic friction is μ = f/N, where f is the force of friction and N is the normal force.
