Question

Rank the below cases by the amount of horizontal pushing force of a person applied to the crates (all cases involve pushing the same crate in a straight path across level ground).

Pushing a crate at a constant 5 m/s.

Pushing a crate that is at rest, but just about to break loose and start moving.

Pushing a crate at a constant 3 m/s.

Pushing a crate at 5 m/s, but slowing down.

Pushing a crate at a constant 1 m/s.

Explanation / Answer

1st greatest is -Pushing a crate that is at rest, but just about to break loose and start moving.( static friction is acting)

2nd gretest is -Pushing a crate at a constant 5 m/s.

3 rd greatest is - Pushing a crate at 5 m/s, but slowing down.

4 th greatest- Pushing a crate at a constant 3 m/s.

5th greatest - Pushing a crate at a constant 1 m/s

according to neuton second law force F is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum

if the body moving more speed more force is required. so B> A > D> C>E
