    Sled being pulled by two people. Minimum tension and acceleration.

    Homework Statement A heavy sled is being pulled by two people as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the sled and the ground is μs = 0.603, and the kinetic friction coefficient is μk = 0.395. The combined mass of the sled and its load is m = 291 kg. The ropes are...

    Force of friction on different times

    Homework Statement A 3.280 kg block of wood rests on a steel desk. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the desk is μs = 0.605 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.155. At time t = 0, a force F = 12.0 N is applied horizontally to the block. State the force of...
