Question

A crate of oranges weighing 194 Nrests on a flatbed truck 2.0 m from the back of the truck. Thecoefficients of friction between the crate and the bed ares = 0.37 and k =0.20. The truck drives on a straight, level highway at aconstant 8.1 m/s. (a) What is the force of friction acting on the crate?
(b) If the truck speeds up with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2, what is the force of the frictionon the crate?
(c) What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have without thecrate starting to slide?
