6. A box with a mass of 10.0 kg is placed on a hill that includes upwards at an angle of 30.0°. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the hill is 0.582, which the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.528. If the box is given an initial push to start it moving down the hill, will it continue moving down the hill when the initial force is removed, or will it coast to a stop? Explain. (TI) 7. A mass m1 of 250 g is on a table connected to a massless pulley, as shown. The coefficient of friction between m1 and the table is 0.228. What is the maximum value of m2 before m1 starts sliding across the table? (TI)

A 10 kg box slides down a 35° incline. The coefficient of friction between the box and the incline is .28. a) Find the acceleration of the box. b) Find the acceleration of the box if it has a mass of 25 kg. (Compare to part (a).) c) If the box starts from rest, what is the speed of the box after 4.0 seconds? A 12.0 kg box is being pulled up an incline by a rope parallel to the incline that makes an angle of 24.0° above horizontal. There is coefficient of friction between the box and incline of 0.18. If the box slows down uniformly from 2.2 m/s to 1.40 m/s as it moves a distance of 2.50 m up the incline, what is the force of tension exerted on the box by the rope?

A child is playing on a hill with a cardboard box. The combined mass of child and box is ? = 120 kg. He climbs into box, which is initially at rest, at the top of the hill. The hill is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and the hill are mu s = 0.4 and mu k = 0.2. Consider that the box (with child inside) has begun to slide down the hill (you can assume that it has been given a brief push to get it started moving). What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the box? b. If the hill is 4 m tall, what is the child’s speed when he reaches the bottom? c. At the bottom of the hill, the ground becomes level (horizontal), but the coefficients of friction do not change. How far does the child slide before he comes to a stop?

A 25 kg box is sitting on an incline( not moving, the coefficient of static friction of the incline is 0. 1 , initially Θ=2.5 degrees, as shown in the diagram ). As Joe Doe starts to tilt the angle of the incline (Θ) higher, the box starts to slide. After it just starts to slide what will the acceleration be equal to? The coefficient of kinetic friction of the incline is 0.01. Consider g=10m/s^2.
