Accepted Answer

To the left, opposite to the direction of motion.

Question 15

Which of the following statements about friction is correct?

Accepted Answer

Static friction can vary up to a maximum value, while kinetic friction is constant for a given normal force.

A 4 kg box is pushed with a force of 20 N across a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction is $$\mu_k = 0.3. $$What is the acceleration of the box?

Accepted Answer

$$a = 2.525\ \mathrm{m/s^2$}$$

Question 17

Which of the following best explains why a box sliding on a floor eventually comes to a stop?

Accepted Answer

Friction exerts a force in the opposite direction to the motion of the box.

Question 18

A 6 kg object is at rest on a horizontal table. If the table is replaced with one that is more easily deformed (softer), what happens to the normal force?

Accepted Answer

The normal force remains $$N = m g as $$long as the object is at rest and the table supports it.
