A particle of mass 1.05 kg is subject to a force that is always pointed towards the East but whose magnitude changes linearly with time t. The magnitude of the force is given as F = 4t, and has units of newtons. Let the x-axis point towards the East. Determine the change in x-coordinate in meters of the particle Δx between t = 0 and t = 2.4 if the initial velocity is 17.5 m/s, and pointed in the same direction as the force.

If the coefficient of static friction between all moving surfaces is 0.42 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.32, determine the magnitude of the minimum force that will get the blocks moving.
The drawing shows a cube (mass=26.6kg), being accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal surface P. A small cube (mass= 4.4kg) is in contact with the front surface of the large cube and will slide downward unless P is sufficiently large. The coefficient of static friction between the cubes is 0.710. What is the smallest magnitude that P can have in order to keep the small cube from sliding downward?
You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must get a box of supplies, with mass 2.80 kg , up an incline of constant slope angle 30.0 degrees so that it reaches a stranded skier who is a vertical distance 3.10 m above the bottom of the incline. There is some friction present; the kinetic coefficient of friction is 6.00×10^−2. Since you can't walk up the incline, you give the box a push that gives it an initial velocity; then the box slides up the incline, slowing down under the forces of friction and gravity. Take acceleration due to gravity to be 9.81 m/s2. Use the work-energy theorem to calculate the minimum speed v that you must give the box at the bottom of the incline so that it will reach the skier.
A block of mass m is initially at rest at the top of an inclined plane, which has a height of 4.2 m and makes an angle θ = 17° with respect to the horizontal.
