y Problem 3: The diagram shows the all of the forces acting on a body of mass 2.31 kg. The three forces have magnitudes F₁ = 50.6 N, F2 = 20.8 N, and F3 = 75.8 N, with directions as indicted in the diagram, where 0 = 39.6 degrees and p = 30.1 degrees. The dashed lines are parallel to the x and y axes. At t = 0, the body is moving at a speed of 7.93 m/s in the positive x direction.

A semi is traveling down the highway at a velocity of v = 27.5 m/s. The driver observes a wreck ahead, locks his brakes, and begins to slide. The truck has mass m and a coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road of μk = 0.16. Write an expression for the sum of the forces in the x-direction for the truck while braking? Using the results from Part (a), input an expression for the truck's acceleration, at, while breaking? What is the magnitude of the acceleration in m/s2? How far does the truck travel, d in meters, before stopping?

A box, initially at rest, is pushed up a ramp that makes an angle of 15◦ with the horizontal as shown in the diagram. The magnitude of the pushing force is 8m newtons, where m is the mass of the box in kilograms. The force is in a direction parallel to and up the ramp. The coefficient of sliding friction between the box and the ramp is 0.25. Model the box as a particle and take the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity to be g = 9.8 m s−2 . Express the four forces in component form in terms of unknown magnitudes where appropriate and find an expression for the resultant force acting on the box. Hence find the magnitude of the acceleration of the box, in m s−2
