I'm fairly certain the amount of force needed to move the box is going to be the maximum of the static frictional force, which again, is: \[\huge F_s=\mu_s mg\]This should be the minimum force required to move the box Once it's moving, there's a frictional force of\[\huge F_k=\mu_k mg\]We will need at least that amount of force to keep the box moving. I would check my work with @ganeshie8 to be sure.

Looks good to me! for second part, constant velocity means acceleration is 0, so we give the block just the necessary force to overcome the kinetic friction...
