Homework Statement
At 1.0KG Apple Ipad Tablet computer is pushed horizontally with a force of 40.0N. The Coefficient of kinetic friction, between the tablet and the table equals .40
Calculate the acceleration of the ipad
Homework Equations
Ff = (.4)(1)(-9.8)
Fnet = 40N+.4-3.92
The Attempt at a Solution
Fnet = 3.52
Fnet = mass x A
Fnet = 1.0 x 3.52
A = 3.52 m/s^2
I've tried and tried, I have NO idea what I'm doing wrong. Everyone failed this test in our class, so he is letting us make test corrections. I've literally spent all night trying to figure this out, and this is my last resort. If you could just show me how to set up an equation, or give me advice. I'm not necessarily asking you do the problem for me, because I would never learn. I just need serious help.
