4.2)Two books are accelerating to the right on a frictional surface and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor
...
ction between the floor and book is µk. Using the information given in the figure:
(a) draw free body diagrams for both the books, and also for the combined system (of mass m1+m2),
(b) find acceleration of the books along horizontal direction, and
(c) find the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the left book on the right book.
3.A car of mass 1500-kg enters a circular path at point P and leaves at point Q (see the figure) at constant speed of 5.0m/s, and the frictional force acting on its tires is 2500-N.
a) how long it takes to reach point Q from point P, and
b) what should be the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road?
4)In an elevator which is accelerating downward at 2.5ms−2 , a 25-kg block hangs from a spring attached to the ceiling of the elevator. If spring gets stretched by 0.15m, find its spring constant.

ng the snow. The first child exerts a force of F1 = 11 N at an angle θ1 = 45° counterclockwise from the positive x direction. The second child exerts a force of F2 = 6 N at an angle θ2 = 30° clockwise from the positive x direction.
Find the magnitude (in N) and direction of the friction force acting on the sled if it moves with constant velocity.

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the ground?
What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) of the sled if F1 is doubled and F2 is halved in magnitude?
