A 45.0-kg crate of tools rests on a horizontal floor. You exert a gradually increasing horizontal push on it, and the crate just begins to move when your force exceeds 313 N. Then you must reduce your push to 208 N to keep it moving at a steady 25.0 cm/s. (b) What push must you exert to give it an acceleration of 1.10 m/s2?

Block A, mass $250\mathrm{g}$, sits on top of block B, mass $2.0\mathrm{kg}$. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between blocks A and B are 0.34 and 0.23, respectively. Block B sits on a frictionless surface. What is the maximum horizontal force that can be applied to block B, without block A slipping?

In a laboratory experiment on friction, a 135-N block resting on a rough horizontal table is pulled by a horizontal wire. The pull gradually increases until the block begins to move and continues to increase thereafter. Figure E5.26 shows a graph of the friction force on this block as a function of the pull. (a) Identify the regions of the graph where static friction and kinetic friction occur.

A box of bananas weighing 40.0 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.40, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. (e) If the monkey applies a horizontal force of 18.0 N, what is the magnitude of the friction force and what is the box's acceleration?

A box of bananas weighing 40.0 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.40, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. (d) What minimum horizontal force must the monkey apply to keep the box moving at constant velocity once it has been started?

A 45.0-kg crate of tools rests on a horizontal floor. You exert a gradually increasing horizontal push on it, and the crate just begins to move when your force exceeds 313 N. Then you must reduce your push to 208 N to keep it moving at a steady 25.0 cm/s. (a) What are the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?

You throw a baseball straight upward. The drag force is proportional to υ2. In terms of g, what is the y-component of the ball's acceleration when the ball's speed is half its terminal speed and (b) It is moving back down?

(b) If the skydiver's daughter, whose mass is 45 kg, is falling through the air and has the same D (0.25 kg/m) as her father, what is the daughter's terminal speed?
