    The frictional force acting on the Hockey player = 80 N.

    Explanation:

    Given,

    coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.1

    Normal force on the hockey player = 800 N.

    Frictional force acting on the hockey player = ?

    Frictional force acting on the hockey player ca be calculated using the formula,

    Frictional force = coefficient of kinetic friction x Normal force

    substituting the values,

    Frictional force = 0.1 x 800 = 80 Newtons.

    Therefore, Frictional force acting on the Hockey player = 80 N.
