A penguin of mass, m, is on an inclined surface (hill), as shown in the diagram. The inclined surface is at an angle of 0 from the flat ground. The coefficient of static friction, µs = 0.498 and the coefficient of kinetic friction, µ = 0.295. Also assume there is a force from gravity (i.e. the weight, W = mg, is pointed straight down towards the ground, as always). a) Draw a free body diagram for the penguin, with the coordinate system rotated so that the x-axis is parallel to inclined plane (see Lecture 18, slide 5 for an example). You must draw the coordinate system like we do in class. Label all forces. Note: in this coordinate system, the weight is not aligned with x or y, so make sure you also draw and label the components of the weight vector. Write the components of weight in terms of m, g, and 0.

A contestant in a winter sporting event pushes an mm kg block of ice across a frozen lake by applying a force FF at an angle θθ below the horizontal as shown. Assume that the coefficient of static friction for ice on ice is 0.0300, and the coefficient of kinetic friction for the same is 0.0100. Let to the right be the positive x direction and up be the positive y direction for your equations. Obtain a numeric value, in newtons, for the magnitude of the maximum applied force, F, consistent with static friction when the force makes an angle 32° below the horizontal and the mass of the block is 63 kg.

Which of the following is TRUE about the friction force between two surfaces? Mark only one. The surfaces must be in contact with each other in order to have friction. The surfaces must be moving against each other in order to have friction. O The magnitude of the friction force depends on the types of materials present, the force of contact between them, and the surface area of the objects. The magnitude of the friction force increases as the relative speed of the objects increases
