Chapter 6, Problem 37P
Continuation of Problem 8. Now assume that Eq. 6-14 gives the magnitude of the air drag force on the typical 20 kg stone, which presents to the wind a vertical cross-sectional area of 0.040 m2 and has a drag coefficient C of 0.80. Take the air density to be 1.21 kg/m3, and the coefficient of kinetic friction to be 0.80. (a) In kilometers per hour, what wind speed V along the ground is needed to maintain the stone’s motion once it has started moving? Because winds along the ground are retarded by the ground, the wind speeds reported for storms are often measured at a height of 10 m. Assume wind speeds are 2.00 times those along the ground. (b) For your answer to (a), what wind speed would be reported for the storm? (c) Is that value reasonable for a high-speed wind in a storm? (Story continues with Problem 65.)

A 4kg block was released from rest on top of a quarter circular surface. If the vertical height from A to B is given as 4m as shown below, If the surface A to B is frictionless, what is the coefficient of friction on surface B to C if the block slid through A to C until it totally stops at C due to friction?
At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car’s skid mark to be 112 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.42. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes.
A rectangular block has a length that is six times its width and a height that is three times its width. The block's surfaces are all identical except for size. When the block is placed on a horizontal tabletop so that the area in contact with the table is length ✕ width, it is found that a horizontal force of 11.6 N applied to the block is just sufficient to overcome the static friction force and cause the block to move. The block is then knocked over so that the area in contact with the table is length ✕ height. Now, what minimum horizontal force will cause the block to move?

- When an object slides on a surface, it encounters a resistance force called friction. This force has a magnitude of uN, is the coefficient of kinetic friction and N is the magnitude of the normal force that the surface applies to the object. Suppose an object of mass 30 kg is released from the top of an inclined plane that is inclined 60° to the horizontal. Assume the gravitational force is constant, air resistance is negligible, and the coefficient of kinetic friction p = 0.2. Determine the equation of motion for the object as it slides down the plane.

The height and width of the car are 1.25 m and 1.65 m, respectively. If the horizontal force acting on the car is measured to be 220 N, determine the total drag coefficient of this car.arrow_forwardAn airplane in flight is subject to an air resistance force proportional to the square of its speed v. But there is an additional resistive force because the airplane has wings. Air flowing over the wings is pushed down and slightly forward, so from Newton’s third law the air exerts a force on the wings and airplane that is up and slightly backward. The upward force is the lift force that keeps the airplane aloft, and the backward force is called induced drag. At flying speeds, induced drag is inversely proportional to v 2 , so that the total air resistance force can be expressed by Fair = av2 + b/v2 where a and b are positive constants that depend on the shape and size of the airplane and the density of the air. For a Cessna 150, a small single-engine airplane, a = 0.30 N.s2 /m2 and b = 3.5×105 N.m2 /s 2 . In steady flight, the engine must provide a forward force that exactly balances the air resistance force. 1. Calculate the speed (in km/h) at which this airplane will have the…arrow_forward
