Consider an inclined plane with a 1 kg block on it. The plane makes an angle of 41 degrees with the horizontal. The block has a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to 0.1 with the incline. You apply a 18 N force vertically downward on the block. Calculate the acceleration, in m/s2, of the block down the incline. (Use g = 10 m/s2)

A box of mass 57 kg is suspended by two ropes. Rope one makes a 54 degree angle with the horizontal. Rope two is horizontal. Using g = 10 m/s2, calculate the tension in rope 1, in N. This scenario is depicted below. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
I was given this problem, and I don't really know what to do about the fact that the normal force doesn't equal the weight for this problem. How am I supposed to find the kinetic friction coefficient now? A box of mass 2,463g is on level ground being pulled by a force of 6.41N at angle 47.2 above horizontal. If the block is moving with a constant velocity, what is the kinetic friction coefficient? (Hint: the normal force does not always equal the weight; it does not in this case.)
Do Chapter 12, Problem 6, with these numbers which I've decided to express in pounds and feet, English units. Sam and Joe carry a beam, walking to the right. Calculate the force that Sam exerts, in pounds. The beam's weight is 109 lb. The beam's length is 21 ft. Sam is 1 ft from the back. Joe is 2 ft from the front.
10. a. In investigating an acccident, police find skid marks left by a car as the driver slammed on the brakes and the car skidded to a halt. The skid marks form a straight line 3.9375 m long on a flat road. It was raining and the coefficient of friction was 0.32125. The mass of the car is 1486.75 kg. What is the angle between the friction force and the displacment of the car? Previous submissions: b. Using W = F Ax cos 0, what was the work done by friction? Previous submissions: c. What was the AKE? Previous submissions: d. What was the initial velocity of the car? Take this to be positive.
