Find the coefficient of static and kinetic friction of a block on a table surface. The mass of the weight is 200g and with the friction block overall the mass is 0.3 kg. With a spring scale we found Fs to be 1N and Fk to be 0.8N. Draw free body diagram.

It is not clear what the spring scale does. If it is measureing horizontal force,then

fs=mu*mg
