Suppose the coefficient of static friction between box A and the floor is 0.4, as shown at right. The coefficient of static friction between box B and a different floor is 0.6, as shown below right. mA = mB = 10 kg. A horizontal 30 N force is applied to each box, and both boxes remain at rest. Is the magnitude of the friction force exerted on box A greater than, less than, or equal to that exerted on box B? The magnitude of friction force on A is greater than the magnitude of friction force on B. The magnitude of friction force on A is less than the magnitude of friction force on B. The magnitude of friction force on A is equal to the magnitude of friction force on B. There is not enough information to answer the question.

Learning Goal: Static and Kinetic Friction Short Calclations A 25.0 kg wooden crate rests on a wood floor. The coefficient of static friction between the wood crate and the wood floor is μs = 0.53. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wood crate and the wood floor is 0.44. You pull on the rope attached to the crate. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration is 9.80 m/s2. Part A - What maximum force (in Newtons) can you exert horizontally on the crate without moving it? Part B - If you pull on the crate with a 38.96 N horizontal force, what is the magnitude of the frictional force? Part C - Now you increase the pulling force gradually to the value in Part A, the crate will start moving. Notice that the type of frictional force will change and the magnitude will also change. After the crate starts moving, your pulfing force remains at the value in Part A. What will be the crate's acceleration? As shown in the same crate from the above parts rests on the same wooden floor. A 100 N force presses on the crate from above. Part D - What is the magnitude of the normal force on the crate by the floor? Part E - What is the minimum horizontal pulling force (in Newtons) to make the crate start moving?

As shown in the diagram above, a block of mass m slides down a plane inclined at an angle of theta = θ above horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is mus = μs. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is muk = μk. The block is sliding down the plane. The magnitude of the friction force that the block exerts on the plane must be equal to which of the following? Choose all that apply. More than one answer may be correct. μsmgsin⁡(θ)[ that says musmgsin⁡( theta )] μsmgcos⁡(θ) [ that says musmgcos⁡( theta) ] mgsin⁡(θ) [ that says mgsin⁡( theta) ] mgcos⁡(θ) [ that says mgcos⁡( theta)] μkmgcos⁡(θ) [ that says mukmgcos⁡( theta) ] μkmgsin⁡(θ) [ that says mukmgsin⁡( theta) ]

A block is moving to the right across a rough table at a constant speed of 2 m/s. The tables and the blocks are identical in the two cases. In case A, the block is pushed with a stick and in case B, the block is pulled with a string. The angle that the applied force makes with the horizontal is the same in both cases. The magnitude of the force on the block by the stick in case A is greater than the tension on the block by the string in case B. The magnitude of the force on the block by the stick in case A is less than the tension on the block by the string in case B. The magnitude of the force on the block by the stick in case A is equal to the tension on the block by the string in case B.
