A 75.0-g arrow, fired at a speed of 110 m/s to the left, impacts a tree, which it penetrates to a depth of 12.5 cm before coming to a stop. Assuming the force of friction exerted by the tree is constant, what are the magnitude and direction of the friction force acting on the arrow?
(a) At a construction site, a pallet of bricks is to be suspended by attach- ing a rope to it and connecting the other end to a couple of heavy crates on the roof of a building, as shown below. The rope pulls horizontally on the lower crate, and the coefficient of static friction between the lower crate and the roof is 0.666. (a) What is the weight of the heaviest pallet of bricks that can be supported this way? Start with appropriate free-body diagrams. (b) What is the friction force on the upper crate under the conditions of part (a)? 150 lb 250 lb Bricks

In figure (a) below, a sled is held on an inclined plane by a cord pulling directly up the plane. The sled is to be on the verge of moving up the plane. In figure (b) below, the magnitude F required of the cord's force on the sled is plotted versus a range of values for the coefficient of static friction us between sled and plane: F1 = 2.5 N, F, = 5.3 N, and µɔ = 0.65. At what angle 0 is the plane inclined? o above the horizontal F F2 (a) (b)
