Question

An object with a mass of 7 kg is on a horizontal floor. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is μs=μs= 0.64, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is μk=μk= 0.29. What is the maximum static friction force that can act on the box? (in N)

 43.9 N  68.6 N  19.9 N  0.290 N  0.640 N

If you push horizontally on the object with a force of 55.6 N, does the object slide, and what is the size of the friction force that acts on the box?
 It slides, friction is 0.290 N
 It does not slide, friction is 43.9 N
 It slides, friction is 19.9 N
 It does not slide, friction is 55.6 N
 It slides, friction is 55.6 N
