Question

A scooter weight 120kg f. Brakes are applied so that wheels stops rolling and start skidding find the the force of friction if the coefficients of friction is 0.4

Answer 1

Answer:

fs=umg

fs=0.4×120=48

Answer 2

Given:

• The weight of the scooter = 120 Kg f
• The coefficient of friction = 0.4

To Find:

• The force of the friction.

Solution:

The formula to find the force of the friction is given by,

F = W × μ → {equation 1}

Where "W" is the weight and "μ" is the coefficient of friction.

Substitute the values from the given data in equation 1. We get,

F = 120 × 0.4 { Multiplying the values}

F  = 48 Kg f

∴ The force of the friction = 48 Kg f.
