A person wants to slide the 100−lb box across the floor by pushing on it with the force P located as shown. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and the floor are 0.20. a) Is it possible to slide the box with an acceleration of 8.00 ft/s2 to the right without tipping the box? Support your answer with a calculation. b) If so, calculate the value of P that gives this acceleration.

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.

Consider the Atwood machine in Fig. 1, where two blocks, one resting on top of the other. The blocks are tied to an ideal pulley (massless) through the rope and the rope can slip through the pulley without friction. The coefficients of static and kinetic frictions between the blocks are μ, and there is no friction between the block and the ground. Someone pulled the pulley with a force F. a. What will the maximum acceleration of the system be if the top block does not slip? ( 3 points) b. Now, assume that slipping does occur between the blocks. Draw the free-body diagrams of two blocks and the pulley w. (4 points) c. Express the acceleration of each block in terms of F, m1, m2, μ, and g when there is slipping. (Hint: pulley is massless, so the sum of the tensions in the rope equals to F ) (3 points)
