A magician pulls a tablecloth from under a 200-g mug located 30.0 cm from the edge of the cloth. The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug and is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 30 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.
A single-celled animal called a paramecium propels itself quite rapidly through water using its hair-like cilia. A certain paramecium experiences a drag force of ?drag=−??2 in water, where the drag coefficient ? is approximately 0.330 kg/m . If the paramecium's speed ? is 0.000137 m/s , what is the magnitude of the propulsion force that the creature must generate to move at this constant speed?

Hi there, I cannot seem to figure out this question. I got an answer of 14.04 but it is incorrect. Can someone help walk me through this question? A vendor at the local art fair ties her tent to the concrete-filled coffee can shown in the picture below. A stiff breeze comes up and the string becomes taut. What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can and the ground is 0.36. Thank you!

Continuing the story from the previous question... after the block begins sliding down the incline at 56.3o, you measure its acceleration down the plank as 7.42 m/s2. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plank?
Can someone help me understand this problem? I got an answer of 7.13 seconds but that appears to be inaccurate. It is friction that provides the force for a car to accelerate, so for high-performance cars the factor that limits acceleration isn't the engine; it's the tires. For typical rubber-on-concrete friction, what is the shortest time in which a car could accelerate from 0 to 70 mph? Suppose that μs=1.00μs=1.00 and μk=0.80μk=0.80. Thank you for your help!
A sled of mass 50.0 kg is pulled along the flat, snow-covered ground. The static friction coefficient is 0.30, and the kinetic friction is 0.10. What does the sled weigh? What force will be needed to start the sled moving? What force is needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity? * Once moving, what total force must be applied to the sled to accelerate it at 3.0 m/s2?
