A 3.45×103 kg train is stopped at a station. The train must go around a 149 m diameter corner right after it leaves the station. As the train leaves the station it provides a constant forward force of 1.67×103 N. What is the train's acceleration after 5.00 s?
A 129 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the horizontal. Someone gives the crate a quick shove to get it moving, after which it slides down the ramp without any further assistance. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is ls = 0.23. What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s?) of the crate?
A car has a mass of 1750 kg. If the driver applies the brakes while on a gravel road, the maximum friction force that the tires can provide without skidding is about 6500 N. If the car is moving at 22 m/s, what is the shortest distance in which the car can stop safely?
A rope exerts a constant horizontal force of 280 N to pull a 50kg crate across the floor. the velocity of the crate is observed to increase from 1m/s to 7m/s in a time of 2 seconds under the influence of this force and the frictional force exerted by the floor on the crate. What is the acceleration of the crate?
A 132 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the horizontal. Someone gives the crate a quick shove to get it moving, after which it slides down the ramp without any further assistance. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is µs = 0.24. What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s²) of the crate?

Elevator Design. You are designing an elevator for a hospital. The force exerted on a passenger by the floor of the elevator is not to exceed 1.60 times the passenger’s weight. The elevator accelerates upward with constant acceleration for a distance of 3.0 m and then starts to slow down. What is the maximum speed of the elevator?
A magician pulls a tablecloth from under a 200 g mug located 15.0 cm from the edge of the cloth. The cloth exerts a friction force of 0.100 N on the mug and is pulled with a constant acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. How far does the mug move relative to the horizontal tabletop before the cloth is completely out from under it? Note that the cloth must move more than 15 cm relative to the tabletop during the process.
The coefficient of static friction between the tires of a car and a horizontal road is 0.2. If the net force on the car is the force of static friction exerted by the road, what is the maximum acceleration of the car when it is braked? The acceleration clue to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2 . Answer in units of m/s^2. What is the shortest distance in which the car can stop if it is initially traveling at 30 m/s? Answer in units of m.
A 5000 kg lorry gradually accelerates from rest. There is a box of mass 200 kg on the back of the lorry. The box is not tied to the lorry. The lorry accelerates from rest to a speed of 15 m/s over a certain distance. The maximum frictional force between the lorry and the box is 630 N. The maximum acceleration (in m/s^2) that the lorry can have without the box falling off is:
Mary applies a force of 70 N to push a box with an acceleration of 0.60 m/s2. When she increases the pushing force to 82 N, the box's acceleration changes to 0.80 m/s2. There is a constant friction force present between the floor and the box. The mass of the box in kilograms is 60. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box?
