In the design of a supermarket, there are to be several rampsconnecting different parts of the store. Customers will haveto push grocery carts up the ramps and it is desirable thatthis not be too difficult. The engineer has done a survey andfound that almost no one complains if the force requiredis no more than 18 N. Ignoring friction, at what maximumangle θ should the ramps be built, assuming a full 25-kg cart?
Suppose the tension in both of the cables is measured to be 50 N and that the angle thateach cable makes with the horizontal is known to be 30 degrees. What is the weight of thesign?
A uniform push of 150 N, applied at an angle of 30 deg to a 20 kg block which rests on a horizontal surface, gives the block a velocity of 6.5 m/s in 4 s. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction.
