Problem 1:
A box of books weighting 300 N is shoved cross the floor of an apartment by a force of 400 N exerted downward at an angle of 35.2* below the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between box and floor is .57, how long does it take t move the box 4 m, starting from rest ?
-----------------------------
w = 300 N ==> m = 30.6 kg
u (coefficient)= .57
d = 4m
v0= 0
F (f) = u time F (normal)
F (normal) is the same as F (perpendicular)
F (per) = 300 cos 35.2* = 245.1 N
F (f) = .57 time 245.1 = 139.7 N
F = ma
139.7 = 30a --> a = 4.6 m/s2
V(final) = 2ad = 36.8 m/s
From vf = vi + at --? t = 8s
What i did wrong ?
Problem 2:
A box slides down a 30* ramp with an acceleration of 1.2 m/s2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp.
-------------------------------------------
Can some one give me some hints ?
