A man wants to move a heavy wooden crate (82 kg) across a wooden floor. However, since he is taller than the crate, he must pull it using a rope that makes an angle of 42 degrees with the horizontal. He exerts a force of 312 N as he pulls. What is the Normal Force exerted by the floor on the crate? What is the size of the Friction Force felt by the crate, if the crate moves at a constant speed in a straight line? Imagine that instead the floor is more slick, so that the crate feels a friction force half of what you calculated above. What is the crate’s acceleration?

Mr. One is pushing a cart with a force of E1 = 15.00 N due north. Mr. Two is pushing the same cart with a force of F2 = 25.00 N due northeast. Mr. Three is pushing the cart a force F3 so that the cart is in equilibrium. Find force F3 so that F1 + F2+F3 = 0. First, we calculate the vector sum F + F, by component method. The x-component of F1 is 0 and the y-component is 15 The x-component of F2 is 0 and the y-component is 25 Adding the components, we can express the resultant vector in unit vector component form: F+F2 = Since we want to find F1 +F2+ F3= 0, it follows that F3= - (F+F).TI Thus,
