Calculating Coefficients of Friction with an Inclined Eraser
Well i guess I am just confused on the following: I know that static friction is bigger and requires more force than that of friction force. The angles seem to indicate that the Static is 30.8 and friction is 35.2 is that right?- piercegirl

Calculating Coefficients of Friction with an Inclined Eraser
Homework Statement In order to determine the coefficients of friction between rubber and various surfaces, a student uses a rubber eraser and an incline. In one experiment, the eraser begins to slip down the incline when the angle of inclination is 35.2° and then moves down the incline with...- piercegirl

Newtons laws on car fuzzy dice
ok :) so I have Force of W(Gravity) Pointing down on neg x-axis and i have a Tension vector pointing out in the 3rd quadrant making a 25 degree angle and finally the Normal force vector pointing up. Is that right?- piercegirl

Calculating Average Velocity from Position Vectors: A Short Guide
Homework Statement Suppose that the position vector for a particle is given as a function of time by (t) = x(t) + y(t), with x(t) = at + b and y(t) = ct2 + d,where a = 1.70 m/s, b = 1.20 m, c = 0.122 m/s2, and d = 1.18 m. (a) Calculate the average velocity during the time interval from t =...- piercegirl

How do i find acceleration and x/y coordinates given time and i/j values?
sure, xt=3i+(3.00i-2.00j)t+(1/2(6.3i+8.9j/2.70))t^2- piercegirl
