Brenda and Carlos are sliding a 100 kg filing cabinet across the floor of their office. The filing cabinet slides with a constant speed if Carlos pushes from behind with 178 N of force while Brenda pulls forward on a rope with 165 N of force. What is the filing cabinetβs coefficient of kinetic friction on the office floor?
