Question 1:

A packing crate is placed on a plane inclined at an angle of 35o from horizontal. If the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the plane is 0.65, will the crate slide down the plane? Justify your answer.

Question 2:

For the situation shown in the figure, what is the minimum coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface that will keep the block from moving? (F1 = 5.0 N, F2 = 4.0 N, and m = 5.0 kg.)

Question 3:

If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table in the figure below is 0.560, and m1 = 0.150 kg and m2 = 0.250 kg (a) what should m3 be if the system is to move with a constant speed? (b) If m3 = 0.100 kg, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the system? (Assume ideal conditions for the string and pulleys.)

Question 4

A father pulls his young daughter on a sled with a constant velocity on a level surface through a distance of 10 m, as illustrated below. If the total mass of the sled and the girl is 35 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled runners and the snow is 0.20, how much work does the father do?

Question 5:

A student could either pull or push, at an angle of 30o from the horizontal, a 50-kg crate on a horizontal surface, where the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and surface is 0.20. The crate is to be moved a horizontal distance of 15 m.
