a. Fap-Ff = m*a = m*0
Fap - Ff = 0
The velocity is constant. Therefore,
the acceleration is zero.
Fap = Force applied.
Ff = Force of friction.
b. Fap - Ff = 0
100 - Ff = 0
Ff = 100 N.
Fap - Ff = 0
The velocity is constant. Therefore,
the acceleration is zero.
Fap = Force applied.
Ff = Force of friction.
b. Fap - Ff = 0
100 - Ff = 0
Ff = 100 N.
