A student wants to determine the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction between a box and a plank. She places the box on the plank and gradually raises one end of the plank. When the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 30, the box starts to slip, and it then slides 2.5 m down the plank in 4.0 s at constant acceleration. What are (a) the coefficient of static friction and (b) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plank?
A 12 ft long, 38 lb ladder leans against a frictionless wall. The coefficient of friction
between the ladder and the ground, however, is 0.321. Can a 190 lb man walk up the
ladder all the way? If not, how far up (m) can he climb before the ladder begins to slip?

A box is placed at one end of a 2.00-m plank. That end of the plank is slowly raised until the box begins to slide. How much time does it take the box to slide to the other (bottom) end of the plank? The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and the plank are, respectively, μs=0.400 and μk=0.200.

- The Johnsons just received a heavy package (perhaps a treadmill) in the mail that they ordered from a popular online shopping website. It's so heavy that they had to push it across their carpeted floor since it was too heavy to lift. The item weighs 102.1 kg and it's packaged in cardboard. The coefficient of friction between the cardboard and their carpet is 0.52. They're a team, and they all push the huge package across their living room at a constant speed. How much collective force do they have to use to push the package across the living room at a constant speed of 0.11 m/s? Use the approximation g ≈ 10 m/s2 Answer: _____________ N (round to nearest whole number)arrow_forwardIt is sometimes claimed that friction forces always slow an object down, but this is not true. If you place a box of mass 2 kg on a moving horizontal conveyor belt, the friction force of the belt acting on the bottom of the box speeds up the box. At first there is some slipping, until the speed of the box catches up to the speed of the belt, which is 6 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between box and belt is 0.50. (a) How much time does it take for the box to reach this final speed? (b) What is the distance (relative to the floor) that the box moves before reaching the final speed of 6 m/s?arrow_forwardTwo identical 5.0-kg boxes are stacked one on top of the other. The stack of boxes is accelerated at a rate of 2.0 m/s² without any slipping. The coefficient of friction between the two boxes is 0.4. Which of the following can we say about the friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box? The friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box has a magnitude between 10N and 20 N. There is no friction between the boxes because the top box is at rest with respect to the bottom box. The friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box is exactly 20 N. The friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box is greater than 20 N. The friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box has a magnitude of exactly 10 N. The friction component of the force the bottom box exerts on the top box has a magnitude less than 10 N.arrow_forward
