Due to a lack of a computer network, you try sending messages through the Reichswald Sherwood forest with the help of kinematics: You fully stretch a bow according to Hooke’s law with a force of 200 N. Measure the full displacement, i.e. the length of your arm x. Compute the force and the acceleration the arrow (m=0.15 kg) experiences half stretched and fully released.
A stubborn dog is being walked on a leash by its owner. At one point, the dog encounters an interesting scent at some spot on the ground and wants to explore it in detail, but the owner gets impatient and pulls on the leash with force F ⃗ = (98.0i ^ + 132.0j ^ + 32.0k ^ )N along the leash. (a) What is the magnitude of the pulling force? (b) What angle does the leash make with the vertical?

- Your friend asks for help moving a box across the apartment floor and tells you that the box weighs 422 N. Your friend also informs you the box, currently motionless, has a coefficient of static friction (us=0.42) and a coefficient of kinetic friction (u=0.31) between it and the floor. You apply a horizontal force of 208 N on the box. Calculate the magnitude of the frictional force, f, acting on the box while you apply that force. Take the acceleration of gravity to be 9.81 m/s². f = O Search N 7:59 PM 11/29/2022arrow_forwardA desperate hiker has to think fast to help his friend who has fallen below him. Quickly, he ties m, a rope to a rock of mass m, = 3.90 x 10? kg and makes his way over the ledge (see the figure). If the coefficient of static friction between the rock and the ground is µs = 0.283, and the mass of the hiker is m, = 70.1 kg, what is the maximum mass of the friend m; that the rock can hold so the hikers can then make their way up over the ledge? Assume the rope is parallel to the ground and the point where the rope passes over the ledge is frictionless. kg IIarrow_forward42. A block initially at rest slides down a ramp of length L that makes an angle of θ with the horizontal. (a) Derive an equation that predicts the time required for the block to reach the bottom of the ramp in terms of L, θ, g, and μ, the coefficient of friction. (b) This derived equation has no real solutions for angles θ ≤ tan–1 (μ). Show algebraically this is the case and explain the physical significance of this – i.e. what does this mean about an actual block on an actual ramp with actual friction?arrow_forward
- Two roofers are installing a new roof. Bob is sitting on the top of the roof that is angled at 23.5 degrees from the horizontal. Nate is sitting 4.1 m further down the roof. In order to get a box of shingles to Nate, Bob just slides the box directly down to him. If the coefficient of kinetic friction for the box and roof is 0.5, then with what speed should Bob initially push the box so that it slides to a stop right as it reaches the Nate?arrow_forwardA box is dropped on a level conveyor belt that is moving at 4.5 m/s in the +x direction in a shipping facility. The box/belt friction coefficient is 0.15. For what duration will the box slide on the belt? In which direction does the friction force act on the box? How far will the box have moved horizontally by the time it stops sliding along the belt?arrow_forwardA force in the +x-direction with magnitude F(x) = 18.0 N - (0.530 N/m)x is applied to a 8.30 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal, frictionless surface of a frozen lake. F(x) is the only horizontal force on the box.arrow_forward
- A 180-kg crate is sitting on the flatbed of a moving truck. The coefficient of sliding friction between the crate and the truck bed is 0.30. Two taut cables are attached to either side of the crate. Each cable can exert a maximum horizontal force of 650 N either forward or backward if the crate begins to slide. If the truck stops in 1.8 s, what is the maximum speed the truck could have been moving without breaking the cables?arrow_forwardYou and your friend Peter are putting new shingles on a roof pitched at 25°. You’re sitting at the very top of the roof when Peter, who is on the end of the roof, 5.2 m away, asks you for the box of nails. Rather than carry 2.2 kg box of nails down to Peter, you decide to give the box a push and have it slide down to him. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the roof is 0.55, with what speed should you push the box to have it gently come to rest right at the edge of the roof?arrow_forwardYou are trying to move a light fixture into an apartment. There are hooks in the elevator so you hang the fixture on a hook with a chain. You don't want the fixture to touch the walls, so you attach a rope to the side that pulls horizontally as shown, keeping the fixture stationary with respect to the elevator. Note theta =38∘. As the elevator ascends vertically, the magnitude of the tension force in the chain from the elevator on the fixture as a function of the vertical position of the elevator, y, is Fcf(y)=F_0*e^-y/y1 where F_0=167 N and y1=3.3 m. Using the fixture as your system, if the elevator goes from y=0 to y=5.94m, what is the work done by the tension force in the chain on the fixture?arrow_forward
- A block of mass m = 94 kg slides along a horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is μk = 0.29. The block has an initial speed of vo = 25 m/s in the positive x-direction as shown. a)Write an expression for the x-component of the frictional force the block experiences, Ff, in terms of the given variables and variables available in the palette. b)What is the magnitude of the frictional force in N? c)How far will the block travel, in meters, before coming to rest?arrow_forwardYou are pushing a metal crate against a metal floor. The two surfaces have a static coefficient of friction of 0.62 and a kinetic coefficient of friction of 0.50. The floor is horizontal, and the crate has a mass of 25.0 kg. What is the minimum force you need to apply to get the crate moving from rest? Give your answer in units of N, to three significant figures.arrow_forwardA small block sits at one end of a flat board that is 4.00 m long. The coefficients of friction between the block and the board are μs= 0.450 and μ = 0.400. The end of the board where the block sits is slowly raised until the angle the board makes with the horizontal is α0, and then the block starts to slide down the board. If the angle is kept equal to α0 as the block slides, what is the speed of the block when it reaches the bottom of the board? Express your answer with the appropriate units.arrow_forward
