A 0.50 kg physics book that is falling, just after being dropped (There is negligible air resistance.) c. A 0.50 kg physics book that is being pushed across a desk with a force of 4.0 N and is experiencing a force of friction with a magnitude of 1.0 N. d. A 0.50 kg physics book that is being pulled up an inclined plane that makes an angle of 40° with the horizontal. A force of 6.0 N is being exerted on a string connected to the book to pull it, and the book is experiencing a frictional force of 1.0 N.

1. A pair of crates are in contact with one another on a horizontal frictionless surface. The first crate has a mass of 3.0kg, while the second has a mass of 12kg. You push on the 3.0-kg crate to the right with a force of 60N, causing it to press against the second crate and move them both. What is the acceleration of each crate? What is the force that the lighter crate exerts on the heavier crate as it presses against it?
