Take Out A Notecard and Your Emergency Contact FormsDraw a free body diagram • A block is pushed across a flat surface at a constant speed • A block slides down a ramp at a constant speed • A Three way tug of war between David, Sarah And James • A 200kg block is pushed across a level surface whose coefficient of friction is 0.6 Find the Force of the push
The Normal Force always acts perpendicular to the surface • The frictional force always acts parallel to the surface • Gravity always act straight down Θ
When drawn this way, the Normal Force and Frictional Force must be broken into components • Fnx = Ffx • Fny + Ffy = Fg Θ
By changing the orientation of the ramp, the problem is much simplified. • Fgx = Ff • Fgy = Fn Θ
Find the coefficient of friction 5kg 30°
