A 14 kg block measures 7 cm by 9 cm by 25 cm. When it slides on a 9 cm by 25 cm face, it moves with constant speed when pulled horizontally by a force whose magnitude is 17 N. How big a horizontal force must be applied to pull it with constant speed if it slides on a 7 cm by 25 cm face?
A horizontal force is applied to an object weighing 392 N that causes its speed to increase uniformly from 0 m/s to 6 m/s in 3 seconds. If we disregard the friction value, calculate the applied force
A 4 kg object starts from rest from the top of an rough 30o incline and slides 3.0 m down the incline in 2.0 s. Find the coefficient of friction between the block and the incline.

The shape of the cars body is such that its aerodynamic drag coefficient is D = 0.330 and its frontal area is 2.50 m2. Assuming the drag force is proportional to 2 and ignoring other sources of friction, calculate the power required to maintain a speed of 100 km/h as the car climbs a long hill sloping at 3.20.arrow_forwardTo get in shape, you head to the local gym to exercise by lifting weights. Using a lat machine (Fig. P5.48), you notice that the wire connected to the bar is run around three different pulleys and is connected to a vertical stack of weights on the other end. The weights move up and down as you pull down on the bar. Suppose you set the machine so that the weight to be lifted is 120.0 lb. When you pull down on the bar, exerting a constant force, the acceleration experienced by the weights is 0.250 m/s2. What tension must exist in the wire connecting the bar and weights under these conditions? Assume the pulleys are massless and frictionless. FIGURE P5.48arrow_forward
