A man pushing a crate of mass
m = 92.0 kg
at a speed of
v = 0.845 m/s
encounters a rough horizontal surface of length
ℓ = 0.65 m
as in the figure below. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and rough surface is 0.351 and he exerts a constant horizontal force of 288 N on the crate.
A man pushes a crate labeled m, which moves with a velocity vector v to the right, on a horizontal surface. The horizontal surface is textured from the right edge of the crate to a horizontal distance ℓ from the right edge of the crate.
(a) Find the magnitude and direction of the net force on the crate while it is on the rough surface.
magnitude | N |
direction | ---Select--- same as the motion of the crate opposite as the motion of the crate |
(b) Find the net work done on the crate while it is on the rough
surface.
J
(c) Find the speed of the crate when it reaches the end of the
rough surface.
