If you press a book flat against a vertical wall with your hand, in what direction is the friction force exerted by the wall on the book? (a) downward (b) upward (c) out from the wall (d) into the wall.
An automobile driver traveling down an 8% grade slams on his brakes and skids 30 m before hitting a parked car. A lawyer hires an expert who measures the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and road to be k = 0.45. Is the lawyer correct to accuse the driver of exceeding the 25-MPH speed limit? Explain.
You are playing with your daughter in the snow. She sits on a sled and asks you to slide her across a flat, horizontal field. You have a choice of (a) pushing her from behind, by applying a force downward on her shoulders at 30 below the horizontal (Fig. 5.2a) or (b) attaching a rope to the front of the sled and pulling with a force at 30 above the horizontal (Fig 5.2b). Which would be easier for you and why?
A box with mass m1 = 6.00 kg sliding on a rough table with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220 is connected by a mass-less cord strung over a mass-less, frictionless pulley to a second box of mass m2 = 12.0 kg hanging from the side of the table (Fig. P5.51). What is the tension in the cord connecting the boxes?
In Example 4.6, we investigated the apparent weight of a fish in an elevator. Now consider a 72.0-kg man standing on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.20 m/s in 0.800 s. It travels with this constant speed for the next 5.00 s. The elevator then undergoes a uniform acceleration in the negative y direction for 1.50 s and comes to rest. What does the spring scale register (a) before the elevator starts to move, (b) during the first 0.800 s, (c) while the elevator is traveling at constant speed, and (d) during the time interval it is slowing down?
Suppose your friend is sitting on a sled and asks you to move her across a flat, horizontal field. You have a choice of (a) pushing her from behind by applying a force downward on her shoulders at 30 below the horizontal (Fig. 4.22a) or (b) attaching a rope to the front of the sled and pulling with a force at 30 above the horizontal (Fig. 4.22b). Which option would be easier and why?
A 10.0-kg object is initially moving east at 15.0 m/ s. Then a force acts on it for 2.00 s, after which it moves northwest, also at 15.0 m/s. What are the magnitude and direction of the average force that acted on the object over the 2.00-s interval?
A 9.00-kg hanging object is connected by a light, inextensible cord over a light, frictionless pulley to a 5.00-kg block that is sliding on a flat table (Fig. P5.7). Taking the coefficient of kinetic friction as 0.200, find the tension in the string. Figure P5.7

Express t in terms of g and h. (b) Find an expression in terms of m and F for the acceleration ax of the object in the horizontal direction (taken as the positive x direction).
