Chapter 5, Problem 39P
|| A 25.0 kg box of textbooks rests on a loading ramp that makes an angle a with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25. and the coefficient of static fiction is 0.35. (a) As the angle a is increased. find the minimum angle at which the box starts to slip. (b) At this angle. find the acceleration once the box has begun to move. (c) At this angle, now fast will the box be moving after it has slid 5.0 m along the loading ramp?

|| It's a snowy day and you're pulling a friend along a level road on a sled. You've both
been taking physics, so she asks what you think the coefficient of friction between the sled
and the snow is. You've been walking at a steady 1.5 m/s, and the rope pulls up on the
sled at a 30° angle. You estimate that the mass of the sled, with your friend on it, is 60 kg
and that you're pulling with a force of 75 N. What answer will you give?
I Review | Constants
You find it takes 210 N of horizontal force to move an
unloaded pickup truck along a level road at a speed of
2.4 m/s. You then load up the pickup and pump up its tires
so that its total weight increases by 42% while the coefficient
of rolling friction decreases by 19%.
Part A
Now what horizontal force will you need to move the pickup along the same road at the same speed? The speed is low enough that you can ignore air
resistance.
Express your answer using two significant figures.
