Question

Transcribed Image Text:A block of mass m = 7 kg rests on a horizontal surface with
the following coefficients of static and kinetic friction:
= 0.5 , uk = 0.2
A force É is applied to the block at an angle 0 = 55° with
respect to the horizontal. See Figure 4. Suppose the applied
force has magnitude F = 60 N. This force is adequate to
move the block. If the block is initially at rest, calculate the
speed of the block after it has moved a distance d = 13 m.
Note that the applied force is applied continuously throughout this distance.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the incline and the penguin's stomach is 0.15. The angle of the incline is 0 = 25 degrees. The total distance down the incline is 25 meters. The penguin gets a running start so his speed is 2.5 m/s when he begins to slide down the incline. What is the penguin's speed when he reaches the bottom of the incline? Hint: use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the acceleration of the penguin on the incline, then use kinematic equations to calculate the speed of the penguin when he reaches the bottom. 2.5 m/s 25 m 25°arrow_forwardAs shown in the figure below, a 2.25 kg block is released from rest on a ramp of height h When the block is released, it slides without friction to the bottom of the ramp, and then continues across a surface that is frictionless except for a rough patch of width 15.0 cm that has a coefficient of kinetic friction - 0.750.
