A crate of 31.6-kg tools rests on a horizontal floor. You exert a gradually increasing horizontal push on it and observe that the crate just begins to move when your force exceeds 309 N . After that you must reduce your push to 248 N to keep it moving at a steady 22.0 cm/s

What is the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor?

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor?

What push must you exert to give it an acceleration of 1.07 m/s2 ?

Suppose you were performing the same experiment on this crate but were doing it on the moon instead, where the acceleration due to gravity is 1.62 m/s2. What magnitude push would cause it to move?

What would its acceleration be if you maintained the push in part C?

A force F is required to push a crate along a rough horizontal floor at a constant speed V with friction present. What force is needed to push the crate along the same floor at a constant speed 2V if friction is the same as before? 1) A force that gradually increases from F to 2F is needed. 2) No force is needed since the crate has no acceleration. 3) A constant force 2F is needed. 4) A constant force...
