Question

using a horizontal force of 200N, we intend to move a wooden cabinate across a floor at a constant velocity. What is the friction force that will be exerted on the cabinet​

Answer 1

Answer:

Using a horizontal force of 200 N, we intend to move a wooden cabinet across a floor at a constant velocity. ... Therefore, force of friction on the cabinet = 200 N, in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of the cabinet.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Answer

For an object to move with constant velocity, net external force experienced by it must be equal to ZERO          i.e        Fexternal=0

Thus a friction of 200 N must be exerted on the cabinet so that it moves with a constant velocity under the applied horizontal force of 200 N.
