Hi, I'm having problems solving this problem:
A small box of mass m1 is sitting on a board of mass m2 with length L . The board rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the board and the box is us. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the board and the box is us.
Throughout the problem, use for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.
Find Fmin., the constant force with the least magnitude that must be applied to the board in order to pull the board out from under the the box (which will then fall off of the opposite end of the board).
Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables us ,m1 ,m2 ,g ,L and . Do not include Force of friction in your answer.
