A box of mass 0.8 kg is placed on an inclined surface that makes an angle 30° above the horizontal, Figure A constant force of 18 N is applied on the box in a direction 10 with the horizontal causing the box to accelerate up the incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.25. (a) Calculate the block's acceleration as it moves up the incline. (b) If the block slides down at a constant speed, find the value of force applied. 30
A contestant in a winter sporting event pushes a 49 kg block of ice at an angle 25∘ below the positive direction across a frozen lake, as shown in the figure. Assume the coefficients of static and kinetic friction are μs=0.1 and μk=0.03Calculate the minimum force Fmin he must exert to get the block sliding across the ice in newtons.  What is its acceleration in meters per second squared once it starts to move, if that minimum force is maintained?
Consider a 10.0-kg mass that slides up the surface of an inclined plane with an inclination of 30o. Draw the free body diagram for the mass sliding on the plane. If the mass has a speed of 3.0 m/s when it begins to travel up the inclined plane, find how far it moves up the plane before it stops. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the mass and the plane is k = 0.15.
