The acceleration of the crate after it begins to move is 0.5 m/s²
We'll begin by calculating the the frictional force
Mass (m) = 50 Kg
Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.15
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
Normal reaction (N) = mg = 50 × 10 = 500 N
<h3>Frictional force (Fբ) =?</h3>
Fբ = μN
Fբ = 0.15 × 500
<h3>Fբ = 75 N</h3>
- Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the crate
Frictional force (Fբ) = 75 N
Force (F) = 100 N
<h3>Net force (Fₙ) =?</h3>
Fₙ = F – Fբ
Fₙ = 100 – 75
<h3>Fₙ = 25 N</h3>
- Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the crate
Mass (m) = 50 Kg
Net force (Fₙ) = 25 N
<h3>Acceleration (a) =?</h3>
a = Fₙ / m
a = 25 / 50
<h3>a = 0.5 m/s²</h3>
Therefore, the acceleration of the crate is 0.5 m/s²

B. It’s the same roughly at all latitudes
<span>32 mph
First, let's calculate the location of the particle at t=1, and t=4
t=1
s = 6*t^2 + 2*t
s = 6*1^2 + 2*1
s = 6 + 2
s = 8
t = 4
s = 6*t^2 + 2*t
s = 6*4^2 + 2*4
s = 6*16 + 8
s = 96 + 8
s = 104
So the particle moved from 8 to 104 over the time period of 1 to 4 hours. And the average velocity is simply the distance moved over the time spent. So:
avg_vel = (104-8)/(4-1) = 96/3 = 32
And since the units were miles and hours, that means that the average speed of the particle over the interval [1,4] was 32 miles/hour, or 32 mph.</span>
