1. Moving Furniture You are helping your friend move a heavy piece of furniture that has a mass of m. You are pushing from the back with a force of F1 and your friend pulls from the front with a force of F2. The furniture does not move. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the furniture and the ground are us and lk, respectively. What is the magnitude of the force of static friction that the ground exerts on the furniture in the situation? F Furniture F

1. A wooden block rests on a wooden table. You push the block to the right; while you are pushing it, you notice the block slows down. Answer the following questions about the block's motion while you are pushing it. a. Draw a force diagram for the block in the space to the right. (For each force that affects the block, draw an arrow showing which way that force pushes the block.) For now, only include the horizontal forces on the block. For each force/push, name the object that is pushing on the block. Also, list the type for each force. b. Is the block in equilibrium? Explain. c. What direction does the velocity of the block point? Explain. d. What direction does the acceleration of the block point? Explain. e. Now add the vertical forces that affect the block to your force diagram above.
