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

Researchers often use force plates to measure the forces that people exert against the floor during movement. A force plate works like a bathroom scale, but it keeps a record of how the reading changes with time. Shown is the data from a force plate as a woman jumps straight up and then lands.a. What was the vertical component of her acceleration during push-off?b. What was the vertical component of her acceleration while in the air?c. What was the vertical component of her acceleration during the landing?d. What was her speed as her feet left the force plate?e. How high did she jump?
