Chapter 5, Problem 5.27E
CP A stockroom worker pushes a box with mass 16.8 kg on a horizontal surface with a constant speed of 3.50 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is 0.20. (a) What horizontal force must the worker apply to maintain the motion? (b) If the force calculated in part (a) is removed, how far does the box slide before coming to rest?

A student, crazed by final exams, uses a force of magnitude 80 N and angle u =70 to push a 5.0 kg block across the ceiling of his room ). If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ceiling is 0.40, what is the magnitude of the block’s acceleration?
the coefficient of static friction between block A and a horizontal floor is 0.320, and the coefficient of static friction between block B and the floor is 0.300. The mass of each block is 2.00kg,and they are connected together by a cord. If a horizontal force F pulling on block B is slowly increased ,in a direction parallel to the connectin cord,until the block start sliding ,what is the magnitude of F at the instant that they start to slide?
In Fig, a block of mass m =5.00 kg is pulled along a horizontal frictionless floor by a cord that exerts a force of magnitude F =12.0 N at an angle θ=25deg.

(b) The force magnitude F is slowly increased. What is its value just before the block is lifted (completely) off the floor?
