Kinetic friction comes into existence when there are moving surfaces means in other words we can say that the force which comes into existing between moving surfaces is known as kinetic friction.

Textbook Question

Chapter 6, Problem 75GP

A 2.0-kg box rests on a plank that is inclined at an angle of 65° above the horizontal. The upper end of the box is attached to a spring with a force constant of 360 N/m, as shown in Figure 6-72. If the coefficient of static friction between the box and the plank is 0.22, what is the maximum amount the spring can be stretched and the box remain at rest?

A large box of mass 11.4 kg sits on a ramp that makes an angle of 30.1 degrees with the horizontal. The surface of the ramp is rough and the coefficients of static and kinetic friction are given as 0.56 and 0,38, respectively. We exert a force up the ramp (parallel to the ramp surface) so that the box does not move. Calculate the maximum and the minimum magnitude of the force we can exert so that the box does not move. Enter the difference between the maximum and the minimum force values here: Fmax-Fmin (in Newtons). On your paper, show all the forces on free-body diagrams, clearly show your work, your derivation and calculations. Make sure to include your physics-based reasoning.

An 8 kg block rests on a horizontal surface whose coefficients of friction are: s = 0.4 and k = 0.2. The maximum force that can be applied to the block so that it does not move is?

A block of wood with mass, 1.20 kg, is held stationary by your friend near the top of a ramp such that it is 1 m above the foor. The sloping surface of the ramp makes a 12 degree angle with the foor. If the coeffcient of kinetic friction for the block-ramp interface is 0.100, how long will it take the block to reach the foor after your friend releases it?
