Answer:

Fs = 17.66 N

Explanation:

The force of static friction is given by the following formula:

[tex]F_s = \mu R = \mu W\\[/tex]

where,

Fs = The force of static friction = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.9

W = weight of sneakers = mg

m = mass of sneakers = 2 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

[tex]F_s = \mu mg\\F_s = (0.9)(2\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)\\[/tex]

Fs = 17.66 N
