2. Consider an armchair sitting on the flat surface of a floor. The armchair has a mass of 25.0 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the armchair and the floor is 0.54, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.32 (a) In an attempt to push the armchair, you apply a force in a horizontal direction, starting at 0 N and increasing, past the point where the armchair begins to move. Plot the force of friction as a function of your applied force. (b) Suppose that you increase the force you apply until the armchair begins to move, and then keep applying a constant force of that magnitude. Draw and label armchair free body diagram, including showing the direction of acceleration, if any. (c) Find the magnitude of the acceleration for the case in (b).

The coefficient of static friction between the 3.00-kg crate and the 35.0 incline of Figure P4.31 is 0.300. What minimum force F must be applied to the crate perpendicular to the incline to prevent the crate from sliding down the incline? Figure P4.31
A horizontal force of 95.0 N is applied to a 60.0.kg crate on a rough, level surface. If the crate accelerates at 1.20 m/s2, what is the magnitude of the force of kinetic friction acting on the crate? (See Section 4.5.)
Suppose your friend is sitting on a sled and asks you to move her across a flat, horizontal field. You have a choice of (a) pushing her from behind by applying a force downward on her shoulders at 30 below the horizontal (Fig. 4.22a) or (b) attaching a rope to the front of the sled and pulling with a force at 30 above the horizontal (Fig. 4.22b). Which option would be easier and why?
