Using a horizontal force of 200N a boy intends to move a cabinet across a floor with a constant velocity. What is the friction force that will be exerted on the cabinet?

Open in App

Solution

Since, a horizontal force of 200N is used to move a wooden cabinet, thus a friction force of 200N will be exerted on the cabinet. Because according to third law of motion, an equal magnitude of force will be applied in the opposite direction.
