Please, show all of your work. This means show step by step how you arrived at your answer(s). Include any equations or formulas used to arrive at the answer(s). Thanks!

Explanation / Answer

1. C

since formula for kinetic frictional force is k|FN|

2. C

since formula for static frictional force is s|FN|.
