Question

The 50-kg crate is pulled by the constant force P. If the crate starts from rest and achieves a speed of $10 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ in 5 s, determine the magnitude of $\mathbf{P}$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ground is $\mu_{k}=0.2$.

Step 1

First, let's calculate the acceleration of the crate using the formula: \[a = \frac{v - u}{t}\] where: - $a$ is the acceleration - $v$ is the final velocity (10 m/s) - $u$ is the initial velocity (0 m/s) - $t$ is the time taken (5 s) Substituting the Show more…
