When the bell in the firehouse starts ringing, he slides down the pole with an acceleration of 3 m/s². What is the total force of friction acting on his body? 1. Identify the problem: What quantity are you being asked to find? What units will this answer be in? 2. Visualize and then sketch the problem. Draw arrows to illustrate the direction of the two forces acting on the fireman. Label these two forces by name. Do not use numbers yet. 3. These two forces act in opposite (+/-) directions and they will partially cancel. Assign the + value to the stronger force. The sum of these two forces is called the Net Force and it is the force which will actually move the fireman. Fill in the names of these two forces in the equation template below. (Hint: Remember that mass and weight are not the same.) Do not use numerical values yet: Net Force = + 4. Newton's 2nd Law gives us another equation for calculating Net Force: Net…arrow_forward
