The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.
If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero.
Since you're pushing on it with 53N in <em><u>that</u></em> direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the <u><em>other</em></u> direction.
The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).
53N = (490N) x (coefficient).
Divide each side by 490N : Coefficient = (53N) / (490N) = 0.1082 .
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's <em>0.11 </em>. (choice 'd')

Explanation:
Solar technologies convert sunlight into electrical energy either through photovoltaic (PV) panels or through mirrors that concentrate solar radiation. This energy can be used to generate electricity or be stored in batteries or thermal storage.
