A sled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle with the horizontal. After the sled is released, it slides a distance d₁ down the slope and then covers the distance d₂ along the horizontal terrain before stopping. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the sled and the ground, assuming that it is constant throughout the trip.

Two crates of fruit  are released from the top of a ramp inclined at 30 degrees from the horizontal and 4.5 meter long. The two crates consist of  an apple crate of mass 20 kg that is placed in front of a watermelon crate of mass 80 kg.  The apple crate has a coefficient of friction of 0.20 while the watermelon crate has a coefficient of friction of 0.15. How long does it take the apple crate to reach the bottom of the incline if it needs to travel a distance of 4.5 meters?

a rock climber on a rock slab. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the climber's rock climbing shoes and the rock is 0.70.  If the climber slide down the rock starting from rest, the amount of time it will take the climber to slide to the edge of the rock slab is?  distance=16.4 m and theta is 68 degrees.

A 6 kg block is sliding down on a rough inclined surface that makes θ = 30° with respect to the horizontal. The kinetic frictional coefficient between the block and the surface is 0.19. Find the acceleration a of the block.

Block A in the figure has mass mA = 4.20 kg, and block B has mass mg = 2.00 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the horizontal plane is k = 0.500. The inclined plane is frictionless and at angle = 30.0°. The pulley serves only to change the direction of the cord connecting the blocks. The cord has negligible mass. Find (a) the tension in the cord and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks. Frictionless, massless pulley MA mp B

A block of mass m =1 kg, slides down a rough incline with constant velocity. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is µr, and the incline makes an angle 0 = 30° horizontal. Take g = 10 m/s2.
