Find the speed of the block after it has moved 3.0 m if the surfaces in contact have a coefficient of kinetic friction of µ k = AM n v f ntal surface by a f k F faces in contact a mg x

4 Example 8.4 W = K + E int We can relate the final kinetic energy (starting from rest) to the forces: K 0 = W E int K = F dr f k s = F dr f k s 1 2 mv 2 = Fs µ k (mg)s 2(Fs µk (mg)s) v = m 2 ( (12 N)(3 m) (0.15)(6 kg)g(3 m) ) = = 1.8 m s 1 6 kg

7 Example 8.4 θ for largest v? W = K + E int Again, we d like an expression for K: K = W E int = F dr f k s = Fs cos θ µ k (mg F sin θ)s where we noticed n = mg F sin θ.

8 Example 8.4 K = Fs cos θ µ k (mg F sin θ)s Maximize v, and therefore K, with respect to θ. Find the derivative, set it to zero:

9 Example 8.4 K = Fs cos θ µ k (mg F sin θ)s Maximize v, and therefore K, with respect to θ. Find the derivative, set it to zero: dk dθ = Fs sin θ µ k ( F cos θ)s = Fs(µ k cos θ sin θ)

10 Example 8.4 K = Fs cos θ µ k (mg F sin θ)s Maximize v, and therefore K, with respect to θ. Find the derivative, set it to zero: dk dθ = Fs sin θ µ k ( F cos θ)s = Fs(µ k cos θ sin θ) Fs(µ k cos θ sin θ) = 0 µ k cos θ = sin θ θ = tan 1 µ k = 8.5
