You have devised an experiment to measure the kinetic coefficient of friction between a ramp and a mass. You place the mass on the ramp at an angle high enough that the mass starts sliding. You measure the time it takes to fall down a known distance. The time it takes to fall down the 45 degree ramp starting from a standstill is At = 0.46 sec, m=1 kg, and the distance it falls, Ax , is 0.5 m. What is µk? m Дх in At Uk
Two crates of fruit are released from the top of a ramp inclined at 30 degrees from the horizontal and 4.5 meter long. The two crates consist of an apple crate of mass 20 kg that is placed in front of a watermelon crate of mass 80 kg. The apple crate has a coefficient of friction of 0.20 while the watermelon crate has a coefficient of friction of 0.15. How long does it take the apple crate to reach the bottom of the incline if it needs to travel a distance of 4.5 meters?

The coefficient of friction between the girl's boots and the slope is µ̟ = 0.152; the friction between the sled and the slope is negligible. The girl can pull the sled up the slope with a < ama = 0.010 m/s² before she begins to slip. Assume the rope connecting the girl to the sled is kept parallel to the slope at all times. The angle of the slope is 0 = 8°. 7. Which of the following simplifications are reasonable?
