To meet a U.S. Postal Service requirement, employees’ footwear must have a coefficient of static friction of 0.500 or more on a specified tile surface. A typical athletic shoe has a coefficient of 0. 800. In an emergency, what is the minimum time interval in which a person starting from rest can move 3.00 m on the tile surface if she is wearing (a) footwear meeting the Postal Service minimum and (b) a typical athletic shoe?
A person pushes horizontally with a force of 170. N on a 52.0 kg crate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.27. (a) What is the magnitude of the frictional force? (b) What is the magnitude of the crate's acceleration? (a) Number i Units (b) Number i Units
A sports car is accelerating up a hill that rises 18° above the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the wheels and the road is μs = 0.88. It is the static frictional force that propels the car forward. (a) What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration that the car can have? (b) What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration if the car is being driven down the hill?
