A 3.5kg block is pushed along a horizontal floor by a force F of magnitude 15N at an angle 40°W horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the floor is 0.25. Calculate the magnitude of:
(a) frictional force on the block from the floor
(b) the block's acceleration
The Newton's second law says
and
Hence:
(a) frictional force on the block from the floor
(b) the block's acceleration
