1. A 18.0-Kg box is pulled along a horizontal surface by a force Fof 50.0N, which is
applied at a 30.0° angle. We assume a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.4.
Draw the free-body diagram for the box and calculate the acceleration and the
magnitude of the upward force FN exerted by the table on the box
F=50N

1. A horizontal force P
the plane, and a horizontal force P= 350 N is required to just push the block up the
plane. Determine the coefficient of static friction between the plane and the crate, and
find the weight of the block.
100 N is just sufficient to hold the block from sliding down
30°
2. Blocks A and B weigh 200 N and 150 N, respectively. They are connected together
with a cable and placed on the inclined plane. If the angle 0 is gradually increased,
determine 0 when the crates begin to slide. The coefficients of static friction between
the crates and the plane are HA
0.25 and HB=
0.35.
If block 1 weighs 50 kg, while block 2 weighs 90 kg, determine the external force P2 so that block 2 will maintain its position. Let P1 be equal to 5 kN. Assume 0.3 coefficient of static friction for all surfaces in contact.
