Abox has mass 13 kg and is at rest on a flat floor. a minimum force of 47 n is needed to push the box so it moves across the floor. what is the coefficient of static friction between the box and floor?

Let's call
 N=Normal force.
 m*g=Weight.
 F= Force needed to move the block.
 f = friction force.
 k = static friction coefficient.
 For balance:
 N = mg and F = f
 By definition
 f=k*N.
 Clearing this last expression:
 k=f/N.
 Substituting:
 k=f/N=F/m*g=(47)/((13)*(9.8))=0.37
 the coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is 0.37

1) when you rub your hands together quickly, the kinetic energy is converted to mechanical energy.2) thermal energy from the sun travels to earth as infrared waves.3) energy is transferred through the matter of space by electromagnetic waves. 4) when a match is burned, chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and radiant energy. 5) seismicwaves are caused by back and forth movement , or vibration, of an object. 6) mechanicalenergy in an engine changes thermal energy into kinetic energy to make a car move.
