Concept explainers

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.

Question

A piano has been pushed to the top of the ramp at the back of a moving van. The workers think it is safe, but as they walk away, it begins to roll down the ramp. Neglect the friction between the piano and the ramp. If the back of the truck is 1.5 mm above the ground and the ramp is inclined at 26 ∘∘ , how much time do the workers have to get to the piano before it reaches the bottom of the ramp?

A weight hangs on a 1.0 m long rope. How high does it rise if we push it from a resting position at a speed of 1.0 m/s in the horizontal direction? At what speed do we have to push it so it makes a whole turn? The rope is taut the whole time? (The solution is 5.1 cm; 7.0 m / s)
A student is on the roof of the SP building, 15.0 m above the ground. Your physics instructor, who is 163 cm tall, is walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 0.35 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your instructors head, where should the instructor be when you release the egg? Assume the egg is in free fall and air friction is “negligible”.
David throws a 50 kg cart down a ramp with an initial speed of vi = 6 m/s. The ramp is at an angle of 20◦, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cart and the ramp is µk = 0.25. Additionally, the coefficient of static friction is µs = 0.55. How much time does it take to reach Ryan who is 10 m away? Assume that the cart slides and doesn’t roll.
A 10 kg box is being pushed across a rough surface with a constant speed of 2 m/s. The person pushing the box slips and stops pushing. The box continues to slide across the surface before coming to rest. If the coefficient of friction between the crate and the surface is 0.1, how far does the box travel before coming to rest?
You are trying to move a light fixture into an apartment. There are hooks in the elevator so you hang the fixture on a hook with a chain. You don't want the fixture to touch the walls, so you attach a rope to the side that pulls horizontally as shown, keeping the fixture stationary with respect to the elevator. Note theta =38∘. As the elevator ascends vertically, the magnitude of the tension force in the chain from the elevator on the fixture as a function of the vertical position of the elevator, y, is Fcf(y)=F_0*e^-y/y1 where F_0=167 N and y1=3.3 m. Using the fixture as your system, if the elevator goes from y=0 to y=5.94m, what is the work done by the tension force in the chain on the fixture?
An adventurous archeologist (m = 84.5 kg) tries to cross a river by swinging from a vine. The vine is 10.5 m long, and his speed at the bottom of the swing is 8.75 m/s.

A skier traveling travelling with a magnitude of velocity v approaches a ramp that has an angle of 0. The approach to the ramp is frictionless, but there is friction on the ramp, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the ramp is uk.

Somone is standing on a piece of cardboard holding a wire that is attached to a vehicle. The friction between the cardboard and road is 67N. The wire makes a 24° angle with the road. The tension on the wire is 134N. If they start from rest how long does it take them to reach a speed of 14m/s and how far have they traveled? The mass of the person and the cardboard is 80kg
A daredevil is going to ride her rocket-powered motorcycle through a circular loop-the- loop which has a 3.0 meter radius. She has 50.0 meters to get up to speed before going into the loop. Assuming there is no friction or air resistance, what maximum force must be applied to the motorcycle over the 50.0 m in order for her to make it through the loop without losing consciousness? Most humans can experience accelerations up to 3g before losing consciousness. Assume the combined mass of the rider and motorcycle is 250 kg. I keep getting 367N but the study guide says 510 N (rounded from 514.5 N)
In this example we will add friction to an inclined ramp. Of course, friction does work and we will need to determine its contribution to WotherWother. A crate full of machine parts sits on the floor; the total mass is 8.0 kg. The crate must be raised to the floor of a truck by sliding it up a ramp 2.5 m long, inclined at 30∘. The shop foreman, giving no thought to the force of friction, calculates that he can get the crate up the ramp by giving it an initial speed of 5.0 m/S at the bottom and letting it go. Unfortunately, friction is not negligible; the crate slides 1.6 mm up the ramp, stops, and slides back down. (Figure 1) shows the situation. (a) Assuming that the friction force acting on the crate is constant, find its magnitude. (b) How fast is the crate moving when it reaches the bottom of the ramp? PART B Suppose the foreman had released the box from rest at a height of 0.25 m above the ground. What would the crate's speed be when it reaches the bottom of the ramp?
A golf ball is launched into the air at an angle. Its horizontal speed is 30 m/s and its vertical speed is 20 m/s. What is its horizontal speed after three seconds? You can ignore friction and air resistance.
