Chapter 6: Q.27 (page 155)

Bob is pulling a 30kgfiling cabinet with a force of 200N, but the filing cabinet refuses to move. The coefficient of static friction between the filing cabinet and the floor is 0.80. What is the magnitude of the friction force on the filing cabinet?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude of the friction force on the filling cabinet isfs=235.2N

Step by step solution

01

Content Introduction

The friction force is proportional to the normal force N exerted by the wall against the block. According to Newton's third law, normal force is equal to and opposite in direction to the force exerted on the wall by the block, which is dependent on F and 胃. The friction force will be directed in the opposite direction as the motion.

02

Content Explanation

We are given:

m=30kgis mass,FN=200Nis force,渭s=0.80is the coefficient of friction

The magnitude of the friction force on the filling cabinet is

fs=渭sFN鈭�fy=0

Since all forces are in equilibrium, we got

FN-mg=0FN=30脳9.81FN=294N

Solve for the magnitude of friction force on the filling cabinet,

fs=0.8脳294fs=235.2N

Seat belts and air bags save lives by reducing the forces exerted on the driver and passengers in an automobile collision. Cars are designed with a 鈥渃rumple zone鈥� in the front of the car. In the event of an impact, the passenger compartment decelerates over a distance of about 1mas the front of the car crumples. An occupant restrained by seat belts and air bags decelerates with the car. By contrast, an unrestrained occupant keeps moving forward with no loss of speed (Newton鈥檚 first law!) until hitting the dashboard or windshield. These are unyielding surfaces, and the unfortunate occupant then decelerates over a distance of only about 5mm. a. A 60kgperson is in a head-on collision. The car鈥檚 speed at impact is 15m/s. Estimate the net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys.

b. Estimate the net force that ultimately stops the person if he or she is not restrained by a seat belt or air bag

You're driving along at25m/swith your aunt's valuable antiques in the back of your pickup truck when suddenly you see a giant hole in the road 55 ahead of you. Fortunately, your foot is right beside the brake and your reaction time is zero!

a. Can you stop the truck before it falls into the hole?

b. If your answer to part a is yes, can you stop without the antiques sliding and being damaged? Their coefficients of friction are 渭s=0.60and渭k=0.30.

Suppose you attempt to pour out 100 g of salt, using a pan balance for measurements, while in a rocket accelerating upward. Will the quantity of salt be too much, too little, or the correct amount? Explain

Bonnie and Clyde are sliding a 300 kg bank safe across the floor to their getaway car.
