Homework Statement Fiction provides the force needed for a car to travel around a flat, circular race track. What is the maximum speed at which a car can safely travel if the radius of the track is 80 meters, and the coefficient of friction is .40? Homework Equations Absolutely no...

Homework Statement If you use a horizontal force of 30.0N to slide a 12.0-kg wooden crate across a floor at a constant velocity, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?Homework Equations Ff=\mukFNThe Attempt at a Solution I thought maybe it would be...

It just says "Graphically add the following sets of vectors." I would think it would want the direction but I could be wrong... But it doesn't give the angles (I had to use a protractor) and usually my book does if it wants direction.

Homework Statement Graphically add the following sets of vectors. (There is a group of 6 vectors labeled A-F. They have an assigned value and are at different angles, but the angle is not given) Homework Equations None? The Attempt at a Solution So my problem here is this. The...

Coeffiecient of Kinetic Friction problem? (Shuffleboard and Distance traveled) Homework Statement A shuffleboard disk is accelerated to a speed of 5.8m/s and released. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the disk and the concrete court is 0.31, how far does the disk go before it...
