A box slides from rest from point A down a plane inclined 30 degrees to the horizontal. After reaching the bottom of the plane, the box moves on the horizontal floor at a distance of 2 m before coming to rest.

A slowly moving conveyor belt passes through a small opening in a wall which is high enough to accommodate a single package, but a reckless worker stacks two packages on the belt. The one at the bottom, package 1 which has mass m1m1, continues, without slipping against the belt, through the opening. (The belt continues without slowing.) The one on the the top, package 2 with mass m2m2, presses firmly against the wall and slips across the lower package. The same coefficients of friction, μsμs and μkμk, apply between the pair of packages and between the package and the belt. Weights, if required, will be denoted with the corresponding subscript of the package as F⃗ g,iF→g,i, for i=1,2i=1,2. The normal force exerted by object aa on object bb, if required, will be denoted as F⃗ n,a→bF→n,a→b for a,b∈{1,2,belt,wall}a,b∈{1,2,belt,wall}, but a≠ba≠b. The force of kinetic friction exerted by object aa on object bb, if required, will be denoted as F⃗ k,a→bF→k,a→b for…

To climb a 400 meter high mountain, you have two options, a straight line route with a 40 ° slope or a route composed of 5 equal sections (same length) each with a 20 ° slope. If traveling in a car with a mass of 1280 kg and a maximum power of 88 kW, Determine (assume the whole car as a particle): a) Is the friction enough to prevent the car from sliding? The coefficient of static friction of the tires with the ground is 0.95. b) What is the power required to climb the 40 ° slope at a constant speed of 40 km / h? Does the car have enough power to go up at that speed? c) What is the constant speed at which the 40 ° slope can be climbed with a 60 kW power? d) What is the power required to climb a 20 ° slope at 40 km/h?
