after traveling at 30 m/s in 2 s, determine the force on the driver from the seatbelt.
A box slides down a frictionless ramp and then crosses a 10 cm length of rough patch.
The 1.75 kg box is released from rest at a height of 0.688 m.
The Rough Patch has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.640.
What is the velocity of the box at the bottom of the ramp? V1 = ?
What is the Friction Force when the box is crossing over the Rough Patch? fk = ?
What is the acceleration of the box as it is crossing over the Rough Patch? a = ?
What is the velocity of the box after it has finished crossing the Rough Patch? V2 = ?
