5. A box with a weight of 50 N rests on a horizontal surface. A person pulls horizontany on it with a force F-15 N and it does not move. To start it moving, a second person pulls vertically upward on the box. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.4, what is uie smallest vertical force (F,) for which the box moves?

5. A 3.00 kg mass is initially at rest at the bottom of an incline of 35.0°. An applied force begins acting on the mass, pushing it up the incline with a constant force of 25.0 N, directed parallel to the incline. a) If the acceleration produced is 2.50 m/s? up the incline, what must the coefficient of kinetic friction be? b) If the applied force acts for 2.00 s, how far up the incline will the mass travel upon coming to rest? Measure this from where the applied force starts acting to where the mass comes to a stop.
Choose the coefficient of friction wisely. Relevant information is given in the textbook. a. What is the maximum frictional force in the knee joint of a person who supports 70.0 kg of her mass on that knee? Fmax 686.7 XN b. During strenuous exercise it is possible to exert forces to the joints that are easily ten times greater than the weight being supported. What is the maximum force of friction under such conditions? (The frictional forces in joints are relatively small in all circumstances except when the joints deteriorate, such as from injury or arthritis. Increased frictional forces can cause further damage and pain.) Fmax = N
