A 100g flea stands on the end of a 1.0 cm long sweep second hand of a clock that rests horizontally on a table. What is the minimum coefficient of static friction which would allow the flea to stay there without slipping? Include an appropriate free-body diagram. Hint: How long does it take for the second hand to complete one cycle?
You are driving behind a pickup truck, going at the same speed as the truck. A very heavy crate tips from the side of the truck and falls to the road. Ignoring air resistance, will your car hit the crate before the crate hits the road if you neither swerve nor brake? Explain fully, addressing the relevant underlying material.
