Learning Goal:
To use the principle of linear impulse to determine
the change in velocity of a box subject to multiple
forces.
The block shown in (Figure 1) has mass m = 48 kg and
is subjected to forces F1 = 300 N at an angle θ = 40 ∘ below the
horizontal and F2 = 60 N . The coefficient of kinetic friction
between the box and the surface is μk = 0.15. What is the velocity
of the box after 15 s if it starts at rest?
A)What is the magnitude of the normal force between
the box and the ground?
B)What is the impulse in the horizontal direction due
to F1?
C)What is the impulse in the horizontal direction due
to F2?
D)What is the impulse in the horizontal direction due
to friction?
E)What is the velocity of the box after 15 s
?
