In a mail-sorting facility, a 2.50-kg package slides down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 22.0° with the horizontal. The package has an initial speed of 2.00 m/s at the top of the incline, and it slides a distance of 13.0 m. 1) What must the coefficient of kinetic friction between the package and the inclined plane be so that the package reaches the bottonm with no speed?

A man is driving his car with speed 47.0 mi/h on a horizontal stretch of road. When the road is wet, the coefficient of static friction between the road and the tires is 0.102. Find the minimum stopping distance (in m). When the road is dry, ?s= 0.603. Find the minimum stopping distance (in m).
Part of a roller-coaster ride involves coasting down an incline and entering a loop 7.30 m in diameter. For safety considerations, the roller coaster's speed at the top of the loop must be such that the force of the seat on a rider is equal in magnitude to the rider's weight. From what height above the bottom of the loop must the roller coaster descend to satisfy this requirement? m
The box below has been given an initial velocity of 2.60 m/s directed up the ramp. The angle the incline makes with the horizontal is 34.0°. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the ramp is 0.430 while the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.280. Use g = 9.80 m/s2. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the box's acceleration while it is sliding up the ramp. m/s2 (b) How far (measured parallel to the incline) does the box travel before coming instantaneously to rest? m (c) After the box comes instantaneously to rest on the ramp, it then either starts sliding down, or remains at rest. Either enter 0, if you determine that the box remains at rest, or calculate the magnitude of the box's acceleration while it is sliding back down the ramp. m/s2

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.
