A wooden pallet carrying 540kg rests on a wooden floor. (a) a forklift driver decides to push it without lifting it.what force must be applied to just get the pallet moving.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "1481.76 N".

Explanation:

According to the question,

Mass,

m = 540 kg

Coefficient of static friction,

[tex]\mu_s[/tex] = 0.28

Now,

The applied force will be:

⇒ [tex]F=\mu_s mg[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

       [tex]=0.28\times 540\times 9.8[/tex]

       [tex]=1481.76 \ N[/tex]
