|| It's a snowy day and you're pulling a friend along a level road on a sled. You've both
been taking physics, so she asks what you think the coefficient of friction between the sled
and the snow is. You've been walking at a steady 1.5 m/s, and the rope pulls up on the
sled at a 30° angle. You estimate that the mass of the sled, with your friend on it, is 60 kg
and that you're pulling with a force of 75 N. What answer will you give?
A1.84-kg school bag hangs in the middle of a clothestine, causing it to
sag by an angle 0-3.50. Find the tension T in the clothestine. (148 N)
12. QCA block of mass 3.00 kg is pushed up against a wall by a
force P that makes an angle of 0 50.0° with the horizontal
as shown in Figure P5.12. The coeffi-
cient of static fric tion between the block
and the wall is 0.250. (a) Determine the
possible values for the magnitude of P
that allow the block to remain station-
ary. (b) Describe what happens if |P
has a larger value and what happens if it
is smaller. (c) Repeat parts (a) and (b),
assuming the force makes an angle of
0 13.0° with the horizontal.
