Question

 Consider the 63 kg ice skater being pushed by two others shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction is μs=0.4 and kinetic is μk=0.02.

Randomized Variablesm = 63 kg
F1 = 238 N
F2 = 175 N

 

 Find the magnitude of Ftot, the total force exerted on her by the others, given that the magnitudes F1 and F2 are 238 N and 175 N, respectively in Newtons.

 

Find the direction of Ftot (in degrees relative to the horizontal), the total force exerted on her by the others, given that the magnitudes F1 and F2 are 238 N and 175 N, respectively

.What is the maximum value of the static friction force, in Newtons, that can act on the skater before she moves? 

What is her acceleration assuming she is already moving in the direction of Ftot in m/s2
