Description: Your friend asks for help moving a box across the apartment floor andtells you that the box weighs 422 N. Your friend also informs you thebox, currently motionless, has a coefficient of static friction (us=0.42)and a coefficient of kinetic friction

The static frictional force on the box Fs=μsW=0.42·422=177.24 N The kinetic frictional force on the box Fk=μkW=0.31·422=130.82 NSince the applied force 208 N is greater than the static friction the box will move and hence the kinetic frictional force will be activated. Hence the frictional force on the box is f=Fk=130.82 N

You drop an object of mass m from a tall building. Suppose the only forces affecting its motion are gravity, and air resistance proportional to the object's speed with positive constant of proportionality k. Let g denote gravitational acceleration (a positive constant). Express the total force in terms of m, g, and the object's velocity v, where upward displacement is considered positive. F = mg - kv Newton's second law tells us that force is equal to mass x acceleration, F = ma. Relating acceleration to velocity, rewrite the equation for total force above as a first order differential equation for v as a function of t. Denote v' as dv dt v(t) m(- dr) this is not an equation. Solve this differential equation for v(t) with the initial condition v(0) = V0. = mg (1-e ==) m k Find the terminal Terminal velocity = mg k X velocity. X syntax error: X X
A particle, which remains at rest, is acted on by three forces F, G and H. The force F has magnitude 55 N and is directed to the left and up making an angle of 45 degrees with the vertical The force G is directed vertically down and H is directed to the right and up making an angle of 60 degrees with the vertical. Find the magnitude of the vectors G and H, giving your answers to one decimal place. The magnitude of G is N (to 1 d.p.) The magnitude of H is N (to 1 d.p.)
Many physical properties, such as force and mass, cannot be measured directly. Rather, some other physical property is measured and the desired physical property is computed from the results. For example, a bathroom scale does not actually measure mass or "weight," but rather the compression distance of a spring. The numerical values on the scale are calibrated from the compression distance using basic physics principles such as Newton's second law. Coefficients of friction cannot be measured directly. In this problem, we are going to learn how we can indirectly measure the coefficient of kinetic friction between two surfaces by directly measuring the expansion of a spring. Consider a 5.45 kg5.45 kg block that is dragged by a spring on a (relatively) frictionless horizontal surface at constant velocity. Suppose the block reaches a rough patch and the spring stretches by 5.25 cm5.25 cm. Compute the coefficient of kinetic friction ?μ between the block and the rough patch if the spring…
