A 16-kg mass is placed on a 25 incline and friction keeps it from sliding. The coefficient of static friction in this case is 0.574 and the coefficient of sliding friction is 0.519 . The mass is given a shove causing it to slide down the incline. Taking down the incline as positive, what is the acceleration of the mass while it is sliding?
 a. 0.47 m/s2
  b. 0.47 m/s2
  c. 0.96 m/s2
  d. 0.96 m/s2
  e. 14.50 m/s2

Question 2

A 12.0-kg mass is placed on a 29.0 incline and friction keeps it from sliding. The coefficient of static friction in this case is 0.660, and the coefficient of sliding friction is 0.546 . The mass is given a shove causing it to slide down the incline. What is the frictional force while the mass is sliding?
 a. 57.0 N
  b. 102.9 N
  c. 56.2 N
  d. 67.9 N
  e. 10.5 N

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

IgA antibodies protect body surfaces exposed to outside foreign substances. IgG antibodies are found in all body fluids. IgM antibodies are the first type of antibody made in response to an infection. IgE antibody levels are often high in people with allergies. IgD antibodies are found in tissues lining the abdomen and chest.
