A student decides to move a box of books into her dormitory room by pulling on a rope attached to the box. She pulls with a force of 130.0 N at an angle of 16.0° above the horizontal. The box has a mass of 25.0 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between box and floor is 0.300. (b) The student now starts moving the box up a 10.0° incline, keeping her 130.0 N force directed at 16.0° above the line of the incline. If the coefficient of friction is unchanged, what is the new acceleration of the box?

A sleigh is being pulled horizontally by a train of horses at a constant speed of 8.05 m/s. The magnitude of the normal force exerted by the snow-covered ground on the sleigh is 6.37 103 N. a. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleigh and the ground is 0.23, what is the magnitude of the kinetic friction force experienced by the sleigh? b. If the only other horizontal force exerted on the sleigh is due to the horses pulling the sleigh, what must be the magnitude of this force?
An Eskimo returning from a successful fishing trip pulls a sled loaded with salmon. The total mass of the sled and salmon is 50.0 kg, and the Eskimo exerts a force on the sled by pulling on the rope. Suppose the coefficient of kinetic friction between the loaded sled and snow is 0.200. (a) The Eskimo pulls the sled 4.60 m, exerting a force of 1.05 102 N at an angle of θ = 0°.
