Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 22 kg and the larger bottom crate has a mass of m2 = 93 kg. There is NO friction between the crate and the floor, but the coefficient of static friction between the two crates is μs = 0.87 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two crates is μk = 0.68. A massless rope is attached to the lower...

A dockworker loading crates on a ship finds that a 34-kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 73-N horizontal force to set it in motion. However, after the crate is in motion, a horizontal force of 50 N is required to keep it moving with a constant speed. Find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between crate and floor

Consider the velocity the satellite ( 125 kg) has while sitting on and at rest with respect to the surface of the earth. Assume a latitude of 28.5 degrees N. Calculate the velocity the satellite has while on the earth's surface due to the rotation of the earth and how much additional velocity must be given to the satellite to reach orbit? this problem doesn't provide any more information, he didn't provide the radius of an orbit, that's why I'm...

You (mass 81 kg) and your friend (mass unknown) are in a rowboat (mass 65 kg) on a calm lake. You are at the center of the boat rowing and she is at the back, 2 m from the center. You get tired and stop rowing. She offers to row and after the boat comes to rest, you change places. You notice that after changing places the boat has moved 20 cm relative to a fixed log. What is your...

Two identical blocks of mass M = 2.60 kg each are initially at rest on a smooth, horizontal table. A bullet of very small mass m = 20 g (m << M) is fired at a high speed v. = 120 m/s towards the first block. It quickly exits the first block at a reduced speed of 0.40 v, then strikes the second block, quickly getting embedded inside of it. All the motion happens on the x-axis. (a) find the...

A crate of mass 50.0 kg slides down a 60.0o incline. The crates acceleration is 4.00 m/s2, and the incline is 10.0 meter long. a) What is the kinetic energy of the crate as it reaches the bottom of the incline? b) How much work is spent in overcoming friction? c) What is the magnitude of friction force that acts on the crate as it slides down the incline? An advertisement claims that a certain 1200kg car can accelerate from...

A jumper with a mass of 90 kg is held at rest at the top of a 100 m high ramp. The jumper is then released to water. (The gravitational field strength is 9.8 m/s2 ) Calculate the change in gravitational potential energy of the jumper when he reaches the ground (the point Y) in kilojoule. How would you calculate the magnitude of kinetic energy of the jumper at point Y? (Assume no energy is transferred or lost during). A...

A ball with a mass of 0.615 kg is initially at rest. It is struck by a second ball having a mass of 0.380 kg , initially moving with a velocity of 0.260 m/s toward the right along the x axis. After the collision, the 0.380 kg ball has a velocity of 0.230 m/s at an angle of 37.4 ∘ above the x axis in the first quadrant. Both balls move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. What is the magnitude...

A block of mass m1 = 1 kg is initially at rest at the top of an h1 = 1 meter high ramp, see Fig. 2 below. It slides down the frictionless ramp and collides elastically with a block of unknown mass m2, which is initially at rest. After colliding with m2, mass m1 recoils and achieves a maximum height of only h2 = 0.33 m going back up the frictionless ramp. (HINT: Solving each part in sequence will guide...
