A block of mass 54.1 kg rests on a slope having an angle of elevation of 20.3°. If pushing downhill on the block with a force just exceeding 192 N and parallel to the slope is sufficient to cause the block to start moving, find the coefficient of static friction.

A block of mass = 50.0 kg is being dragged at a constant velocity across a floor by a strong person pulling it with a rope. The rope makes an angle of 300 with the horizontal. The tension in the rope is 50.0 Newtons. Assume a real floor, with friction. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor?

A student of mass 61.4 kg, starting at rest, slides down a slide 22.2 m long, tilted at an angle of 28.1° with respect to the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the student and the slide is 0.118, find the force of kinetic friction, the acceleration, and the speed she is traveling when she reaches the bottom of the slide. (Enter the magnitudes.) HINT (a) the force of kinetic friction (in N) N (b) the acceleration (in m/s) m/s? (c) the speed she is traveling (in m/s) m/s Need Help? Read It Watch

A sphere of mass 4.7 × 10-4 kg is suspended from a cord. A steady horizontal breeze pushes the sphere so that the cord makes a constant angle of 26° with the vertical. Find (a) the magnitude of that push and (b) the tension in the cord.

A moving truck (m = 3200 kg) is parked on a hill that is inclined at an angle of 11◦ from the horizontal. Assuming that the static friction between the truck and surface on which it is parked is at its maximum value, what is the coefficient of static friction of the surface?

The coefficient of static friction between a 2.0 kg box and a plane inclined 28° to the horizontal is 0.65. What maximum applied force can be exerted on the box without moving it?

Suppose you have a stack of 17 identical steel bars (steel bars have a mass of 1.00kg each). You are required to pull out bar number 16 from the stack (counting from the top of the stack down). Assuming that your assistant holds all other bars in place.   If the coefficient of friction between steel and steel is 0.750, how hard do you have to pull (in N)?

An 11 kg block of steel is at rest on a horizontal table. The coefficient of static friction between block and table is 0.52. (a) What is the magnitude of the horizontal force that will put the block on the verge of moving? (b) What is the magnitude of a force acting upward 60 from the horizontal that will put the block on the verge of moving? (c) If the force acts downward at 60 from the horizontal, how large can its magnitude be without causing the block to move?

An initially stationary box of sand is to be pulled across a floor by means of a cable in which the tension should not exceed 876 N. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is 0.360. (a) What should be the angle between the cable and the horizontal in order to pull the greatest possible amount of sand, and (b) what is the weight of the sand and box in that situation?
