A cart of mass 0.85 kg is on a track, connected by a string over a pulley to a hanging mass of 0.1 kg. A friction pad is attached to the bottom of the cart, and you push the cart so that it first moves toward the sensor, then away from the motion sensor. Assuming the magnitude of the force of friction remains constant throughout the entire motion of the cart, the magnitude of the net acceleration of the cart is which of the following? a. larger when the cart is moving towards the motion sensor b. larger when the cart is moving away from the motion sensor c. the magnitude of the acceleration cannot be predicted
Consider an object at rest on a rough horizontal surface. Which of the following is necessarily correct if we use the model of friction described in the videos and book? The force of friction on the object is smaller than or equal to μg FN, where μs is the coefficient of static friction and FN is the normal force exerted on the object by the surface. The force of friction on the object is proportional to the normal force exerted by the surface on the object. The force of friction on any object opposes motion; since the object is at rest, the force of friction is zero. The force of friction on the object is proportional to the object's weight, i.e. Ff = p.mg, where μs is the coefficient of static friction, m is the mass of the object, and g is acceleration due to Earth's gravity.
