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 = 2.37 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 835 N/m. It is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 28.3∘ with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.15. In the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.106 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. Take the initial gravitational potential energy of the block as zero.

A box of mass m = 9.00 kg is located at the top of a ramp of height h = 7.00 m, as shown in the figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ramp and the box is μk = 0.6. You give the box a push so that it starts sliding down with an initial speed of 2.50 m/s. The box continues its motion on a rough horizontal surface for 15.00 m until it hits a spring of spring constant k = 300. N/m and fully compresses it by 50.0 cm before coming to rest. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the horizontal surface and the box?
