An object of mass m slides down a slope of Ɵ angle with µ(kinetic) friction. velocity is V(zero) at t=0. Under what conditions does the object stop sliding? Show how you found this requirement.hint: a=F(net)/m, find an inequality
Show that the acceleration of any object down an incline where friction behaves simply (that is, where fk=μkN)fk=μkN) is a=g(sinθ−μkcosθ).a=g(sinθ−μkcosθ). Note that the acceleration is independent of mass and reduces to the expression found in the previous problem when friction becomes negligibly small (μk=0).(μk=0).
A cake rests in a cardboard box on the horizontal surface of the seat of your car which is traveling at 11 m/s. If the coefficients of friction are µk = 0.3 and µs = 0.5, find the minimum stopping distance necessary to keep the cake box from sliding off the seat.
