  1. You are dragging a rubber tire on the concrete floor. The upward force exerted on the tire from the floor is 30N. μs = 1 μk = 0.8

    1. What is the type of force that is being described above?

    1. What is Ff when the tire is moving?

    2. What would Ff be if you are using maximum force but the tire has not started moving yet?

Answer #1

The 30 N force which is exerted by ground on the tire is the normal reaction force that the ground exerts on the tire. It is equal and opposite to the normal force that tire exerts on the ground.

Ff is basically friction force and is given by product of coefficient of friction and Normal force.

When tire is moving, Ff is coefficient of kinetic friction*Normal force=0.8*30=24 N

When tire is not moving and applied force is maximum, then Ff is coefficient of static friction*Normal force=1*30=30 N

If you jump from a desktop and land stiff-legged on a concrete floor, you run a significant risk that you will break a leg. To see how that happens, consider the average force stopping your body when you drop from rest from a height of 1.10 m and stop in a much shorter distance d. Your leg is likely to break at the point where the cross-sectional area of the bone (the tibia) is smallest. This point is just above...

Consider the following scenario. You find yourself having some books with a total mass of 32 kg that you have to move from your bedroom to the door of your apartment using a rope attached to the crate. The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.65, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.45 . (a) Pulling the rope horizontally, what is the minimum force you have to pull with to get the crate to...

Multiple choice questions, only one answer is correct for each question. Please answer the question carefully, they are very important. 1What is Pascal's Law? When gasses aren't constrained they tend to expand or contract, which depends on the pressure. You can squeeze air into tighter spaces by pressing the molecules together. In a contained incompressible fluid, any external pressure applied at one point will raise pressure equally at every point. An object placed in water is buoyed up with a...

Suppose the two cars had rubber bumpers in the front and back – similar to the bumper cars children (of all ages!) ride at amusement parks. Also, suppose that the cars are sturdy enough that the metal they are made of does not bend during the collision. In this case, the cars would undergo a perfectly elastic collision. Assume just like in the first collision question that the SUV (initially moving to the right) collides into the stationary smart car....
