Question


A horizontal force of 10 N is applied to a stationary 2-kg block as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the floor is 0.75; the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.45. Find the acceleration of the box. m/s2

A horizontal force of 10 N is applied to a stationary 2-kg block as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the floor is 0.75; the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.45. Find the acceleration of the box. m/s2

Explanation / Answer

maximum Static frictional force = 0.75*2*9.8 = 14.7N > 10N


Hence block doesnt move. Acceleration = 0
