QUESTION:

Problem 1PE

A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between his steel spatula and his Teflon frying pan is only 0.200 N. Knowing the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two materials, he quickly calculates the normal force. What is it?

ANSWER:

Solution 1PE :

Step 1 of 2:-

        In the case of frictional force, the normal reaction plays an important role.

        If the kinetic friction coefficient between the surfaces is , then the frictional force will be,

        ------------------------(1)

        Here  is the normal reaction.
