A 50-N object sits on a 20° rough incline. It is attached to a 10-N object over a pulley. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.70 and 0.20, respectively. We want to know whether or not the object will slide. With that in mind, fill out the following table, leaving any quantity that is not given as a variable:

Kinetic friction is proportional to the normal force (Eq. 5.9). Why should there be an intimate connection between these two forces?
If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object.
(a) What is the maximum frictional force in the knee joint of a person who supports 66.0 kg of her mass on that knee? (b) During strenuous exercise, it is possible to exert forces to the joints that are easily 10 times greater than the weight being supported. What is the maximum force of friction under such conditions? The frictional forces in joints are relatively small in all circumstances except when the joints deteriorate, such as from injury or arthritis. Increased frictional forces can cause further damage and pam.
A physics major is cooking breakfast en she notices that the frictional force between her steel spatula and Teflon trying pan is only 0.200 N. Knowing the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two materials, she quickly calculates the normal force. What is it?

Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76

A block whose weight is 31.6 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 25.3 N is applied to the block. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.649 and 0.363, respectively.
