A person pushes horizontally with a force of220Non a55kgcrate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor is0.35. What is the magnitude of (a) the frictional force and (b) the acceleration of the crate?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force is 188.84 N.

(b) The magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is0.5665ms2 .

Step by step solution

01

Given

Mass of the crate,M=55Kg

Horizontal force,F=220N

Coefficient of kinetic friction force,k=0.35

02

Determine the formula for the concept as:

The problem is based on Newton鈥檚 second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction of the force acting on it. With this the frictional force and the acceleration can be calculated.

Consider the formula for the net force as:

Fnet=ma

Here, F is the net force, mis mass and ais an acceleration.

03

Determine the free body diagram for the condition as:

Free body diagram of the crate:

04

(a) Determine themagnitude of the frictional force

By using Newton鈥檚 2nd law along y direction,

Fy=may

Since crate is not moving along y, ay=0.

N-mg=0N=mg

Relation between frictional force and normal force is

role="math" fs=kN=0.35559.81=188.84N

Hence, the magnitude of the frictional force is 188.84 N.

05

(b) Determine themagnitude of the acceleration

By using Newton鈥檚 2nd law along x direction,

Fx=max

Since crate is moving along x, letax=a

F-fs=ma

Rewrite the formulas and substitute the values and solve as:

a=F-fsm=220-188.8455=0.5665ms2

Hence. the magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is 0.5665ms2.

You must push a crate across a floor to a docking bay. The crate weighs 165 N. The coefficient of static friction between crate and floor is 0.510, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.32. Your force on the crate is directed horizontally. (a) What magnitude of your push puts the crate on the verge of sliding? (b) With what magnitude must you then push to keep the crate moving at a constant velocity? (c) If, instead, you then push with the same magnitude as the answer to (a), what is the magnitude of the crate鈥檚 acceleration?

In Fig. 6-50, block 1 of mass m1=2.0kgand block 2 of massm2=3.0kgare connected by a string of negligible mass and are initially held in place. Block 2 is on a frictionless surface tilted at=30. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block 1 and the horizontal surface is0.25. The pulley has negligible mass and friction. Once they are released, the blocks move. What then is the tension in the string?
