Two forces F1 and F2 of equal magnitude are applied to a brick of mass 20kg lying on the floor as shown in the figure above. If the coefficient of static friction between the brick and the floor is 0.4, what is the minimum value of F required to start the brick to move?
Given the following information, how would you find the acceleration of the two block system? "Two blocks with masses m1 and m2 are connected by a massless string and sliding down a plane inclined at an angle ?, as shown in the figure below. The kinetic coefficient of friction between block m1 and the inclined plane is ?2, and ?3 for block m2. You can assume that the acceleration due to gravity is given as ?."
Thank you. Can you just explain specifically how Newton's 2nd and 3rd Law apply to the egg drop situations. Is the force the same in all instances, depending on the height and why? And does te eforce balance out in all three cases when it hits the ground-why is this so for Newton's 3rd Law?

At the instant a race began, a 67-kgkg sprinter exerted a force of 700 NN on the starting block at a 22∘∘ angle with respect to the ground What was the horizontal acceleration of the sprinter? If the force was exerted for 0.32 ss, with what speed did the sprinter leave the starting block?
The sprinter from problem 9 is now out of the blocks and running. If the coefficient of static friction between the track shoe and the track is 0.80, and the sprinter exerts a vertical force of 2000 N downward on the track, what is the maximum horizontal force he can generate under his shoe?

I don't understand why Fs <= Fk. What does the F in (1) and (2) stand for? If it's force applied, wouldn't F = Fs + Fk for box 2, and (F - Fs - Fk) = Fs for box 1? My thinking is that the Force applied on box 2 minus the force of kinetic friction and the force of static friction applied by Box 1 on 2 would equal to the net force. Then the net force of box 2 would cause the same netforce on box 1, if box 1 isn't moving, then it's Fs should be equal to that net force applied on box 1. Therefore Force applied wouldn't be equal to Static Friction Force, and shouldn't it be bigger than the Kinetic Friction Force since it's moving in the direction of Force applied?
