Homework Statement
The question:
It takes a 5.0 N force to pull a 2.0kg object along the ground. What is the coefficient of Friction.
Its Pretty Blunt, and i have been stuck on it for about 10 minutes, There must be a step that i don't know or am missing because i get stuck
Homework Equations
Sum of the Forces = m*a
Force of Friction = Coefficient of Friction*Force Normal
Fg=m*a
The Attempt at a Solution
There must be a equation i am missing, to find out the Force of Friction
heres where i get to:
Fp= 5N
m=2kg
Fg-Fn= 0
Fg= 19.6
Fn= 19.6
I would be extremely grateful if i could get some help on this question
