Chapter 4, Problem 4.30P
A large box containing your new computer sits on the bed of your pickup truck. You are stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, you stomp on the gas and the truck accelerates. To your horror, the box starts to slide toward the back of the truck. Draw clearly labeled free-body diagrams for the truck and for the box. Indicate pairs of forces, if any, that are third-law action reaction pairs. (The horizontal truck bed is not frictionless.)

Students have asked these similar questions
Person A, is tired pulling Person B and
his wagon . So, Person B lets Person A to sit on his wagon and takes Person’s A place in crossing a 25m-long bridge. Starting from rest,
Person B pulls Person A and the sleigh with a 130-N force 30° above
the horizontal against the ground's frictional force of 95N.
1. Draw an appropriate free body diagram to represent all the
forces acting on Person A and the wagon. (Person A and the
Wagon are considered as a single object/system.)
What is the acceleration of Person A and the wagon if their
combined mass is 400kg?
How much work is done by Person B in crossing the bridge?
What is the total work done by all the forces on Person A and
the wagon over the distance of 25 m?
What is the change in the kinetic energy of Person A and the
Wagon after crossing the bridge?
An object of mass m is being acted by the following 3 forces: F1 = 500 N @ 45° North of East, F2 = 750 N @ 30°
West of North and F3 = 400 N @ 30° South of West. Find mathematically the magnitude and direction of a
fourth force F4 that will maintain the object at equilibrium.
Ignore the weight of the object.
Provide free body diagram for the system and the sum of the forces along the axis.
Draw a diagram of the situation and label the givens in the problem: The cart's mass and the hanger's mass. Also label the direction of the cart and hanger's acceleration.
Draw two force diagrams. One for the cart and one for the hanger. You can treat the track as frictionless. Remember that the force in the string will be the same throughout the entire string.
Then define an x-y coordinate system and find the x and y components of the forces in your diagrams.
