A block of mass M1 = 3 kg rests on top of another block of mass M2 = 5 kg. As shown in the figure, the top block is connected by a cord to a wall at left. The bottom block rests on a frictionless inclined plane of angle theta = 20o and has a force F applied to it down the plane. If the minimum force for which the bottom block will begin to slide has magnitude F = 2.5 N, what is the coefficient of static friction (us) between the two blocks?

Four forces act on an object, given by A = 38.3 N east, B = 45.3 N north, C = 70.7 N west, and D = 88.7 N south. (Assume east and north are directed along the +x-axis and +y-axis, respectively.) (a) What is the magnitude of the net force (in N) on the object? (b) What is the direction of the force? (Enter your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
As you will see in a later chapter, forces are vector quantities, and the total force on an object is the vector sum of all forces acting on it. In the figure below, a force F, of magnitude 6.70 units acts on a crate at the origin in a direction 0 = 26.0° above the positive x-axis. A second force F, of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the crate in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find graphically the magnitude and direction (in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis) of the resultant force F, + F,. magnitude units direction Counterciockwise from the +x-axis
