Lon Mauer is cleaning up the driveway after mowing the grass. He exerts a sudden downward force of 56.8 N at a constant angle of 54.7° directed below the horizontal direction in order to push and accelerate his 1.05-kg broom from rest. The rate of acceleration of the broom is 0.670 m/s/s. Determine the coefficient of friction between the broom bristles and the driveway.
A 620 kg car pulling a 495 kg trailer accelerates forward at a rate of 2.20 m/s2. Assume frictional forces on the trailer are negligible. Ignore air drag.   (d)What is the resultant force exerted by the car on the road? (Assume that the forward direction is along the +x-direction to the right and that the +y-direction points upward. Enter the magnitude in N and the direction in degrees measured from the left of the −y-direction.)   Magnitude (in N): Direction: (measured from the left of the −y-direction in degrees)
A 276-kg glider is being pulled by a 1 950-kg jet along a horizontal runway with an acceleration of = 2.20 m/s2 to the right. Find (a) the thrust provided by the jet’s engines and (b) the magnitude of the tension in the cable connecting the jet and glider.
