You are working in a shoe test laboratory measuring the coefficients of friction for running shoes on a variety of surfaces. The

shoes are pushed against the surface with a downward force of 400 N, and a sample of the surface material is then pulled out from under the shoe by a machine. The machine pulls with a force of 300 N before the material begins to slide. When the material is sliding, the machine only has to pull with a force of 200 N to keep the material moving. What is the coefficient of static friction between the shoe and the material

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75

A 2000 N net force will give a car with some amount of mass an acceleration of 4 m/s2
hammer [34]

Answer:

2m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Net force on the car  = 2000N

Acceleration = 4m/s²

Unknown:

Acceleration of a car twice the mass  = ?

Solution:

Let us first find the mass of the car;

 Force  = mass x acceleration

         Mass = \frac{Force }{acceleration}  

 Mass = \frac{2000}{4}   = 500kg

 Now,

     whose mass is twice that of the car

    Mass of the new car = 2 x 500  = 1000kg

So;

  Acceleration  = \frac{Net force }{mass}  

  Acceleration  = \frac{2000}{1000}  = 2m/s²
