4. An 85-N box of oranges is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. (a) Illustrate the situation with complete and correct labels of the given information. (* This is in addition to the required FBD of the box.) (b) Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and floor.

1. A child pushes a table of mass 40 kg with a force of 200 N, the table is on a rough flat floor with a friction coefficient of 0.4. What is the acceleration generated.
Two dimensional dynamics often involves solving for two unknown quantities in two separate equations describing the total force. The block has a mass m=10kg and is being pulled by a force F on a table with coefficient of static friction μs=0.3. Four forces act on it: The applied force F (directed θ=30∘ above the horizontal). The force of gravity Fg=mg (directly down, where g=9.8m/s2). The normal force N (directly up). The force of static friction fs (directly left, opposing any potential motion). If we want to find the size of the force necessary to just barely overcome static friction (in which case fs=μsN), we use the condition that the sum of the forces in both directions must be 0. Using some basic trigonometry, we can write this condition out for the forces in both the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, as: Fcosθ−μsN=0 Fsinθ+N−mg=0 In order to find the magnitude of force F, we have to solve a system of two equations with both F and the normal force N…

A 10 kg block with an initial velocity of 10 m/s slides 10 meters across a horizontal surface and comes to rest after sliding for 2 seconds. How much force was acting on the block to make it stop? Your answer should be in units of N but you should only submit the number for your answer (and don't worry about negative signs, just submit a positive value).
You pull on a crate using a rope as in (Figure 1), except the rope is at an angle of 20.0 ∘∘ above the horizontal.

Four pets named Arjay, Baguilat, Cuh-ing, and Dabest play a pulling game with a rope as shown below. Arjay pulls strongly with 610.0 units of force (N). Baguilat pulls with a force of magnitude B = 200.0 N, and Cuh-ing pulls with aforce of magnitude C = 140.0 N. When Dabest pulls on the rope in such a way that his force balances out the resultantof the other three forces, the rope does not move in any direction. With how much force and in what direction mustDabest pull on the rope for the situation to happen? I need help in figuring out is the magnitude of Dabest's pulling force? the direction(use method 1: zero-degree reference line) of Dabest's pulling force and What is the direction(use method 2: geographical direction) of Dabest's pulling force?
