7. Friction, Inclines, Systems

A block of mass $m$ is sliding at constant velocity across a horizontal tabletop. If the applied force is $F$ and the normal force is $N$, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction ${\mu }_k$ between the block and the tabletop?

When an object slides across a surface, what is the relationship between $kinetic friction$ and the $thermal energy$ produced?

Which of the following lists correctly identifies the four main types of friction encountered in physics?

When a car tire is skidding on a road, how does increasing the speed of the tire affect the kinetic friction force between the tire and the road?

Which of the following material pairings would most likely result in the greatest kinetic friction ($f\_k$) when sliding against each other?

Kinetic friction acts on a moving object sliding across a surface. How does kinetic friction affect the speed of the object over time?

Which of the following scenarios best demonstrates kinetic friction?

What is the primary cause of kinetic friction between two surfaces in contact?

As you push a cereal box across a tabletop, the sliding friction acting on the cereal box

Pushing a 10-kg toolbox across the floor, you find that the box moves at a constant speed when you push horizontally with a force of 39 N. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the toolbox?

You push on a 3-kg box to give it an initial speed of 5 m/s across a floor. If μ_k = 0.3, how far does the box travel before coming to a stop?
