Homework Statement
A block whose weight is 45.0N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal for of 36.0N is applied to the block. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.650 and 0.420, respectively. Will the block move under the influence of the force, and, if so, what will be the block's acceleration? Explain your reasoning.
Homework Equations
FsMAX=UsFn FkMAX=UkFn F=ma
i don't know how to make the squiggly m so i put in a U
The Attempt at a Solution
i found out that FsMAX=29.25N and FkMAX=18.9N and a=.8
but it feels like i just plugged things in and i don't really understand how these relate to each other.
