Mass=kg
Acceleration=m/s^2

Using Newtons second law

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=kgm/s^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Newton(N)$

Answer: The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but F_g remains the same.

Explanation:

The situation is same as when a book is pushed with an increasing force on a table; When the force is low, book doesn't move, until that under a given force starts moving, and then it goes on movement even if the force decreases a bit.

The physical explanation for this, that friction force adopts any value needed to avoid to move the object, till a limit value is achieved, called static friction force, equal to the normal force times the static friction coefficient.

Once in movement, the kinetic friction coefficient replaces the static one , and in general is lower than the static one, so the force diminishes.

In the case of the box sliding down the board, the force that tries to move the object down the board, is the component of the weight parallel to the board, that can be showed that being equal to the weight times the sinus of the angle of the board with the horizontal, as follows:

F_g = m g sin θ

When θ increases, F_g does the same, so friction force always has the same magnitude than F_g (but opposite direction) so the box doesn't move, till that θ takes a value that produces a F_g equal to static friction force.

Beyond this limit angle, F_g (remaining the same for a given angle) is greater than the kinetic friction force, and the box slides.

In the limit, when θ=90º, sin θ =1⇒ F_g = mg, so the object is in free fall.

You have a two-wheel trailer that you pull behind your ATV. Two children with a combined mass of 77.2 kg hop on board for a ride

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of motion and Hook's law.

By Hook's law we know that force is defined as,

$F= kx$

Where,

k = spring constant

x = Displacement change

PART A) For the case of the spring constant we can use the above equation and clear k so that

$k= \frac{F}{x}$

$k = \frac{mg}{x}$

$k= \frac{77.2*9.8}{0.0637}$

$k = 11876.92N/m$

Therefore the spring constant for each one is 11876.92/2 = 5933.46N/m

PART B) In the case of speed we can obtain it through the period, which is given by

$T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$

Re-arrange to find \omega,

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}$

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{2.14}$

$\omega = 2.93rad/s$

Then through angular kinematic equations where angular velocity is given as a function of mass and spring constant we have to

$\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m}$

$m = \frac{k}{\omega^2}$

$m = \frac{ 11876.92}{2.93}$

$m = 4093.55Kg$

Therefore the mass of the trailer is 4093.55Kg

PART C) The frequency by definition is inversely to the period therefore

$f = \frac{1}{T}$

$f = \frac{1}{2.14}$

$f = 0.4672 Hz$

Therefore the frequency of the oscillation is 0.4672 Hz

PART D) The time it takes to make the route 10 times would be 10 times the period, that is

$t_T = 10*T$

$t_T = 10 *2.14s$

$t_T = 21.4s$

Therefore the total time it takes for the trailer to bounce up and down 10 times is 21.4s
