Lon Mauer is cleaning up the driveway after mowing the grass. He exerts a sudden downward force of 56.8 N at a constant angle of 54.7° directed below the horizontal direction in order to push and accelerate his 1.05-kg broom from rest. The rate of acceleration of the broom is 0.670 m/s/s. Determine the coefficient of friction between the broom bristles and the driveway.

If the vector components of the position of a particle moving in the xy plane as a function of time are x(t)=(2.5ms2)t2i and y(t)=(5.0ms3)t3j, when is the angle between the net force on the particle and the x axis equal to 45?
A 75.0-g arrow, fired at a speed of 110 m/s to the left, impacts a tree, which it penetrates to a depth of 12.5 cm before coming to a stop. Assuming the force of friction exerted by the tree is constant, what are the magnitude and direction of the friction force acting on the arrow?
A 3.00-kg object is moving in a plane, with its x and y coordinates given by x = 5t2 1 and y = 3t3 + 2, where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Find the magnitude of the net force acting on this object at t = 2.00 s.
A sleigh is being pulled horizontally by a train of horses at a constant speed of 8.05 m/s. The magnitude of the normal force exerted by the snow-covered ground on the sleigh is 6.37 103 N. a. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleigh and the ground is 0.23, what is the magnitude of the kinetic friction force experienced by the sleigh? b. If the only other horizontal force exerted on the sleigh is due to the horses pulling the sleigh, what must be the magnitude of this force?
If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object.
Why is the following situation impossible? A 1.30-kg toaster is not plugged in. The coefficient of static friction between the toaster and a horizontal countertop is 0.350. To make the toaster start moving, you carelessly pull on its electric cord. Unfortunately, the cord has become frayed from your previous similar actions and will break if the tension in the cord exceeds 4.00 N. By pulling on the cord at a particular angle, you successfully start the toaster moving without breaking the cord.
A block with a mass of 6.47 kg is on a horizontal surface that has friction. A string is pulling horizontally on the block with a force of 16.1 N at an angle of 19° above horizontal. The block is movingalong the surface at a constant speed of 5.53 m/s. What is the coefficient of the kinetic friction between the surface and the block?
A hunter is pulling his sled 45 kg in mass behind him on snow.

A 10000-kg load sits on the flatbed of a 20000-kg truck moving at 12.0 m/s. Assume that the load is not tied down to the truck, but has a coefficient of static friction of 0.500 and a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.400 with the flatbed of the truck. If the truck needs to stop in 10.0 m with constant acceleration, what is the force of friction between the load and the truck when the brake is first applied?
