Question

A worker of a moving company places a 308 kg trunk on a piece of carpeting and slides it across the floor at a constant velocity by exerting a horizontal force of 425 N on the trunk. What horizontal force must the mover apply to move the trunk at a constant rate?
Typo???
You said the answer, 425 Newtons
Something missing in this problem statement? For example the mu of the floor with no carpet?
the mu is .14, sorry!
