Chapter 6, Problem 8Q
In Fig. 6-15, a horizontal force of 100 N is to be applied to a 10 kg slab that is initially stationary on a frictionless floor, to accelerate the slab. A 10 kg block lies on top of the slab; the coefficient of friction µ between the block and the slab is not known, and the block might slip. In fact, the contact between the block and the slab might even be frictionless. (a) Considering that possibility, what is the possible range of values for the magnitude of the slab’s acceleration aslab? (Hint: You don’t need written calculations; just consider extreme values for µ.) (b) What is the possible range for the magnitude ablock of the block’s acceleration?

- A block lies on a plane raised an angle θ from the horizontal. Three forces act upon the block: F→w, the force of gravity: F→n, the normal force; and F→f, the force of friction. The coefficient of friction is large enough to prevent the block from sliding. Because the block is not moving, the sum of the y components of the forces acting on the block must be zero. Find an expression for the sum of the y components of the forces acting on the block, using coordinate system b. Because the block is not moving, the sum of the x components of the forces acting on the block must be zero. Find an expression for the sum of the x components of the forces acting on the block, using coordinate system b. To find the magnitude of the normal force, you must express Fn in terms of Fw since Ff is an unknown. Using the equations you found in the two previous parts, find an expression for Fn involving Fw and θ but not Ff.arrow_forwardA block of mass m = 10.5 kg rests on an inclined plane with a coefficient of static friction of µ, = 0.11 between the block and the plane.
