A suitcase weighing 222 N is at rest on the floor of a hotel lobby. The co-efficient of static friction between the suitcase and the floor is 0.413, and the co-efficient of kinetic friction is 0.312.
With what minimum horizontal force must a bellhop push the suitcase to start it moving?
Once the bellhop has put the suitcase in motion, what horizontal force must he apply to keep it moving at a constant speed?
If the bellhop continues to push the suitcase with the same force he used to begin the motion, what acceleration will the suitcase experience?
