Question
A counter attendant in a diner shoves a ketchup bottle with mass of 0.25kg along a smooth level lunch counter. The bottle leaves her hand with an initial velocity of 4 m/s as it slides. It slows down because of the horizontal friction force exerted on it by the countertop. The bottle slides a distance of 3m before coming to rest. What are the magnitude and the direction of the friction force acting on it? Show your work that leads to the answer. Explain each step in your work.

A person pushes a large block on a horizontal ice surface in a straight line to the right with constant speed, as shown above. The mass of the block is 10kg and frictional forces between the block and the ice are negligible. However, the block has a wide cross-sectional area such that air resistance acting on the block cannot be neglected. The opposite is true for the person: air resistance on the person is negligible, but the person’s shoes do not slip on the ice. The table shows the force exerted by the person on the block for several values of constant speed. (a) A student claims that the data show that the magnitude of the force of air resistance is proportional to the speed of the object, within experimental uncertainty. Use physics principles to explain whether the claim is correct. (b) As the person pushes the block, the person moves with the same constant speed as the block. Consider…arrow_forward
