Homework Statement


The coefficient of kinetic friction of a block depends on:
A. normal force.
B. surface area of the 2 materials
c. mass of block
d. speed of block
e. what the 2 materials are made of


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


SInce friction of a block depends on what the 2 materials are made of then i believe the answer would be E since Mk is a type of friction
