When a click beetle is upside down on its back, it jumps upward by suddenly arching its back, transferring energy stored in a muscle to mechanical energy.This launching mechanism produces an audible click, giving the beetle its name.Videotape of a certain clickbeetle jump shows that a beetle of mass m = 4.0 * 10-6 kg moved directly upward by 0.77 mm during the launch and then to a maximum height of h= 0.30 m. During the launch, what are the average magnitudes of (a) the external force on the beetle’s back from the floor and (b) the acceleration of the beetle in terms of g?

Static and Kinetic Friction

Kinetic friction comes into existence when there are moving surfaces means in other words we can say that the force which comes into existing between moving surfaces is known as kinetic friction.
