    Friction: A box at rest on a slope

    Okay, well my scanner is on the fritz at the moment, but as soon as I fix it, sure thing.

    Friction: A box at rest on a slope

    I calculated my FNET drawing a FBD and looking at all forces. The only relevant ones were the force of gravity acting parallel to the plane and the force of friction, everything else canceled out. I had 34 Newtons down the plane for Net force. You made me realize that I did calculate the...

    Friction: A box at rest on a slope

    Homework Statement Mass of 22kg on a 45o to the horizontal. \mus = 0.78 \muk = 0.65 Determine the magnitude of the largest force that can be applied upward parallel to the ramp to have the box remain at rest. AND Determine the magnitude of the smallest force applied to the top of the box...

    How Do You Calculate the Stopping Time and Displacement of a Skier on a Slope?

    I haven't learned kinetic energy yet... BTW, this is a correspondence coarse for Grade 12 Physics in Ontario..

    How Do You Calculate the Stopping Time and Displacement of a Skier on a Slope?

    Homework Statement A young skier (25kg) pushes off with ski poles to give herself an initial velocity of 3.5 m/s down a hill with 5o slope with a coefficient of friction of 0.20. Find the time until skier comes to stop and her displacement. Therefore m = 25kg vi = 3.5m/s \theta = 5o...
