A 28 kg steel block sits on a lubricated steel floor. What is the maximum amount of static friction(in newtons) that can appear if a horizontal force is applied to the box?

A block is pressed against a vertical wall by a force F, as the drawing shows. This force can either push the block upward at a constant velocity or allow it to slide downward at a constant velocity. The magnitude of the force is different in the two cases, while the directional angle is the same. Kinetic friction exists between the block and the wall, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.260. The weight of the block is 47.0 N, and the directional angle for the force F is 0 = 48.0°. Determine the magnitude of F when the block slides (a) up the wall and (b) down the wall. (a) P = (b) P= i i P >

A 150-lb block rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static and kinetic frictions between the block and the surface are 0.30 and 0.20, respectively. What is the acceleration of the block when P = 90 lb. P μs=0.30, μk=0.20 150 lb

A 235 N crate rests on a ramp; the maximum angle just before it slips is 27.8° with the horizontal. What is the coefficient of static friction between crate and ramp surfaces? Answer:

A woman exerts a horizontal force of 111 N on a box with a mass of 31.7 kg. HINT (a) If the box doesn't move, what's the magnitude of the static friction force (in N)?  N (b) What is the minimum possible value of the coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor? (Assume the box remains stationary.)

A 423 N crate rests on a ramp; the maximum angle just before it slips is 26.4° with the horizontal. What is the coefficient of static friction between crate and ramp surfaces?

The 118-lb force P is applied to the 250-lb crate, which is stationary before the force is applied. Determine the magnitude and direction of the friction force F exerted by the horizontal surface on the crate. The friction force is positive if to the right, negative if to the left. Assume ??= 0.48, ??= 0.38.

A stationary 10kg object is sitting on the ground. The coefficient of static friction between the object and the ground is 0.8 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.6. How much horizontal force needs to be applied in order to make the object move?

A girl exerts a horizontal force of 133 N on a box with a mass of 33.2 kg.   (a) If the box doesn't move, what's the magnitude of the static friction force (in N)? N (b) What is the minimum possible value of the coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor? (Assume the box remains stationary.)
