Static and Kinetic Friction

Kinetic friction comes into existence when there are moving surfaces means in other words we can say that the force which comes into existing between moving surfaces is known as kinetic friction.

Question

of ice in the shape of a hemispherical dome with radius
R and slides down the slope. At a certain height h, the
normal force becomes zero and the skier leaves the sur-
face of the ice. What is h in terms of R?

Review. The mass of a car is 1 500 kg. The shape of the cars body is such that its aerodynamic drag coefficient is D = 0.330 and its frontal area is 2.50 m2. Assuming the drag force is proportional to 2 and ignoring other sources of friction, calculate the power required to maintain a speed of 100 km/h as the car climbs a long hill sloping at 3.20.
A 5.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and surface is K=0.50 . A horizontal force pulls the box at constant velocity for 10 cm. Find the work done by (a) the applied horizontal force, (b) the frictional force, and (c) the net force.

A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.0-mm-high, 20∘∘ ramp, sail across a 10-mm-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as he starts up the ramp. He is going 10.4 m/sm/s at that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires (coefficient 0.02) is not negligible. Justify your answer by calculating the distance he travels through the air after leaving the end of the ramp. x =
A 55 kg skateboarder wants to just make it to the upper edge of a “half-pipe” with a radius of 3.0 m, as shown. What speed does he need at the bottom if he will coast all the way up? The skateboarder isn’t a simple particle: Assume that his mass in a deep crouch is concentrated 0.75 m from the half-pipe. If he remains in that position all the way up, what initial speed does he need to reach the upper edge?
