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.

A block with mass m1 hangs from a rope that is extended over an ideal pulley and attached to a second block with mass m2 that sits on a ledge. The second block is also connected to a third block with mass m3 by a second rope that hangs over a second ideal pulley as shown in Figure P5.47. If the friction between the ledge and the second block is negligible, m1 = 3.00 kg, m2 = 5.00 kg, and m3 = 8.00 kg, find the magnitude of the tension in each rope and the acceleration of each block.

A girl of mass m1=60.0 kilograms springs from a trampoline with an initial upward velocity of vi=8.00 meters per second. At height h=2.00 meters above the trampoline, the girl grabs a box of mass m2=15.0 kilograms. For this problem, use g=9.80 meters per second per second for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. What is the speed vbefore of the girl immediately before she grabs the box? What is the speed vafter of the girl immediately after she grabs the box? What is the maximum height hmax that the girl (with box) reaches? Measure hmax with respect to the top of the trampoline?

Walking in Waikiki, a tourist steps out onto Kuhio Dr while texting. Unbeknownst to the sunburned visitor, the street has been closed for the filming of a car chase scene for Hawaii 5-0. Slamming on the breaks, the stunt driver is thrown against his seatbelt, stopping in 90m. If the driver and the car weigh a total of 544kg and were traveling at 18 m/s, what force does the 90kg driver feel? Sketch: Equations: Work:
The engines of a tanker broke down and the wind pushes the ship with a constant speed of 1.5 m / s straight towards a reef. When the boat is 500 m from the reef, the wind stops and the engineer manages to start the engines. The rudder is stuck, so the only option is to try to accelerate backwards. The mass of the ship and its cargo is 3.6 x 107 kg and the engines produce a net horizontal force of 8 x 104 N. The hull can withstand impacts at a speed of 0.2 m / s or less. The retarding force that the water exerts on the hull of the ship can be neglected. a) The equation of motion that corresponds to the horizontal component is? b)The acceleration of the ship is equal to? c) If the reef does not exist, the vessel, before stopping, travels what distance?
