    Uniform Circular Motion for particle of mass

    Homework Statement A particle of mass m=1kg moves counterclockwise in a horizontal circle of radius r=1m with uniform speed of 1 m/s. Determine the velocity, acceleration, total force and the component of the the total force on the particle in direction of its velocity as a function of the...

    Static Friction when pushing a crate on the floor

    To get the F value, sub n= F cos θ / μ into x equation. Is this the solution?

    Static Friction when pushing a crate on the floor

    Are you referring to the a in the net horizontal force has to be 0 always in static case? Or both for vertical as well? Horizontal: F cos θ - μn = 0 Vertical : -mg + F sin θ + n = 0 Solving the y equation gives n= F cos θ / μ

    Static Friction when pushing a crate on the floor

    Horizontal: F cos θ - fs = ma Vertical : -mg + F sin θ + n = 0 Am i right?

    Static Friction when pushing a crate on the floor

    Yes, i did. Just can't figure out the value F as there is no known data given.

    Static Friction when pushing a crate on the floor

    Homework Statement You try to push a crate of weight M with a force F on a horizontal floor. The coefficient of static friction is μ and you exert the force F under an angle θ below the horizontal. a) Determine the minimum value of F that will move the crate b) Assume you have not...
