Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 4.3- block and the horizontal surface on which it rests if an 80 spring must be stretched by 2.7 to pull the block with constant speed. Assume the spring pulls in a direction 13 above the horizontal.

without units, the numerals in your problem are absolutely meaningless.
My bad.
Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 4.3-kg block and the horizontal surface on which it rests if an 80 N/m spring must be stretched by 2.7 cm to pull the block with constant speed. Assume the spring pulls in a direction 13 degree above the horizontal.

ok,the force is kx or 80*.027 N
Now look at the components of force.
the vertical component reduces the normal force.
fn=mg-kx*sin13
so friction is mu*(mg-kx*sin13)
and friction force has to equal the horizontal component for the spring, kx*cos13
set them equal, and you have it.
