Concept explainers

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

An 85 kg man lowers himself to the ground
from a height of 10.0 m by holding onto a rope that
runs over a frictionless pulley to a 65 kg sandbag.
With what speed does the man hit the ground if he
started from rest?
