Problem 2
An object of mass m sits on top of a horizontal plate. The plate (P) oscillates horizontally (perpendicular
to Earth's gravity). The oscillation has amplitude is zo = 0.15 m and period T = 1 s. The friction
between the body and the plate is so that the body just stays on the plate without slipping. Find the
coefficient of friction between the plate and the body. Note that he maximal friction force between the
plate and body is μN where N is the magnitude of the normal force.
