OK, one more time. This time the magnet has mass 6.05 kg and the force pulling it to the right is 81.2 N. When the magnet hits the floor, it continues being pulled to the right by the same magnetic force as before. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the magnet and the floor is 0.335. What will the magnet s acceleration be as it slides to the right along the floor? (Assume static friction is overcome and the magnet will slide.)

The IKAROS spacecraft, launched in 2010, was designed to test the feasibility of solar sails for spacecraft propulsion. These large, ultralight sails are pushed on by the force of light from the sun, so the spacecraft doesn’t need to carry any fuel. The force on IKAROS’s sails was measured to be 1.12 mN. If this were the only force acting on the 290 kg spacecraft, by how much would its speed increase after 6 months of flight?

If one mass is pulled with an applied force F, find the tension force in each of the other two strings connecting the masses and find the acceleration of each mass. (b) Two blocks of given mass are in contact on a frictionless horizontal table. A horizontal force is applied to one block, F. Find the acceleration of both blocks and the force between them.

If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object.
