A block of weight W = 200 N on an incline of 20∘ with respect to the horizontal direction is subjected to a constant force P that is inclined by an angle of 30∘ with respect to the horizontal direction, as shown in Figure 3. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the incline are μs = 0.30 and μk = 0.20, respectively. a) Draw a free body diagram of the block and find the maximum force P = Pmax that can be applied before the block starts to slide up the incline. Find the normal force N exerted by the incline on the block when P = Pmax . b) For a force P = 500 N, draw a free body diagram of the block and find its (constant) acceleration a up the incline. c) If the block starts from rest at time t = 0 when the force P = 500 N is first applied to the block, find the speed v = v(t) of block and the distance s = s(t) it travels up the incline at any time t.

A block of mass m = 100 kg is on an inclined plane as shown where ∅ = 20 degrees and θ = 40 degrees. The coefficient of static friction is μs = 0.35 and coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.3 . Determine the friction force, F, acting on the block when force P with a magnitude of 200 N is applied to the block, which remains in equilibrium. Determine the magnitude of the force, P, required to initiate motion of the block up the slope from rest. Determine the magnitude of the friction force F acting on the block if P = 900 N.

A 4.540 kg block of wood rests on a steel desk. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the desk is μs = 0.505 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.205. At time t = 0, a force F = 13.8 N is applied horizontally to the block. State the force f(t) of friction applied to the block by the table at times t = 0 and t > 0. f(0) = N f(t > 0) = N Consider the same situation, but this time the external force F is 27.9 N. Again, state the force of friction acting on the block at times t = 0 and t > 0. f(0) = N f(t > 0) = N
