An ice hockey player is skating on an ice rink. The rink has a coefficient of kinetic friction of roughly 0.1. If the normal force on the hockey player is 800. N, what is the frictional force acting on the hockey player?

The frictional force acting on the Hockey player = 80 N.

Explanation:

Given,

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.1

Normal force on the hockey player = 800 N.

Frictional force acting on the hockey player = ?

Frictional force acting on the hockey player ca be calculated using the formula,

Frictional force = coefficient of kinetic friction x Normal force

substituting the values,

Frictional force = 0.1 x 800 = 80 Newtons.

Therefore, Frictional force acting on the Hockey player = 80 N.
