There are different kinds of forces; applied force, force of gravity, friction force, normal force, tension force. We will focus on the common forces, applied force and force of gravity. An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by another object. The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the weight of the object.

A box is placed on a conveyor belt that moves with a constant speed of 1.05 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The box stops in 0.139 seconds, after moving 7.29cm (0.0729m) backwards relative to the belt.

Explanation:

As the box is initially at rest relative to the earth, it is moving backwards with a speed of 1.05m/s relative to the belt. Then, the frictional force acts on the box to make it stop relative to the belt. So, we first have to write the equations of motion of the box in each axis:

x: f_k=ma\implies a=\frac{f_k}{m} \\\\y: N-mg=0\implies N=mg

Since the frictional force f_k is equal to f_k=\mu_k N=\mu_k mg, then we have that the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\mu_k mg}{m}=\mu_k g

Now, from the definition of acceleration we get:

a=\frac{v-v_0}{t}\implies t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}

And, as the final velocity is zero because the box gets to a stop, we have:

t=-\frac{v_0}{a}=-\frac{v_0}{\mu_k g}

(Don't worry about the negative sign. It will disappear because the initial velocity is also negative, since we take the box initially moving backwards)

Then, plugging in the given values, we calculate the time:

t=-\frac{(-1.05m/s)}{0.770(9.81m/s^{2})}=0.139s

In words, the time the box takes to stop sliding relative to the belt is 0.139s.

The displacement of the box in this time, is given by the kinematics formula:

v^{2}=v_0^{2}+2ax\implies x=-\frac{v_0^{2}}{2\mu_kg}

Finally, we calculate the displacement:

x=-\frac{(1.05m/s)^{2} }{2(0.770)(9.81m/s^2)}=-0.0729m=-7.29cm

This means that the box moves 7.29cm backwards relative to the belt.

You push a desk with 245 N, but the desk doesn't move due to its friction with the ground. What is the magnitude of the friction
const2013 [10]

If the desk doesn't move, then it's not accelerating.

If it's not accelerating, then the net force on it is zero.

If the net force on it is zero, then any forces on it are balanced.

If there are only two forces on it and they're balanced, then they have equal strengths, and they point in opposite directions.

So the friction on the desk must be equal to your<em> 245N</em> .
