[2073 'D']
In a physics lab experiment, a $6\;kg$ box is pushed across a flat table by a horizontal force $(F)$.
(i) If the box is moving at a constant speed of $0.30\;m/s$ and the coefficient of kinetic friction is $0.12$, What is the magnitude of $F$?
(ii) If the box is speeding up with a constant acceleration of $0.18\;m/s^2$, what will be the magnitude of $F$? [Click here for Solution]

A little red wagon with mass $7\;kg$ moves in a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. It has an initial speed of $4\;m/s$ and then is pushed $3\;m$ in the direction of the initial velocity by a force of $10\;N$. Calculate the wagon's final speed and the acceleration produced by the force. [Click here for Solution]

Suppose you try to move a carate by tying a rope qround it and pulling on the rope at angle of $30^0$ above the horizontal. What is the tension required to keep the crate moving with constant velocity? Assume weight of the crate $W = 500N$ and coefficient of dynamic fraction $\mu_k = 0.40$. [Click here for Solution]

A light rope is attached to a block with mass $4 \; kg$ that rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. The horizontal rope passes over a frictionless pulley and a block with mass $m$ is suspended from the other end. When the blocks are released, the tension in the rope is $10\;N$. Draw free body diagrams and calculate the acceleration of either block and the mass $m$ of the hanging block. [Click here for Solution]

A car travelling with a speed of $15\;m/s$ is braked and it slows down with uniform retardation. It covers a distance of $88 \;m$ as its velocity reduces to $7\;m/s$. If the car continues to slow down with the same rate, after what further distance will it be brought to rest? [Click here for Solution]
