Math Problem Statement
tell me all the helpful formula to use to solve this thank you
Solution
To solve the problems in the image provided, here are the key formulas and concepts that are useful:
1. Newton's Second Law of Motion:
- : Net force acting on the object (in Newtons, ).
- : Mass of the object (in kilograms, ).
- : Acceleration of the object (in meters per second squared, ).
Net Force:
Where:
- : Applied force (in ).
- : Frictional force (in ).
2. Friction Force Formula:
Where:
- : Frictional force (in ).
- : Coefficient of friction (unitless).
- : Normal force (in ).
For horizontal surfaces:
Where:
- : Gravitational force (in ).
- , with (acceleration due to gravity).
3. Solving for Acceleration:
If friction and applied forces are known, acceleration can be calculated as:
4. Coefficient of Friction:
Rearranging the friction force formula, the coefficient of friction can be calculated as:
Steps to Solve Each Situation:
- Identify the forces given in the problem ().
- Calculate the missing force or acceleration using the formulas above.
- If acceleration is , frictional force exactly balances the applied force:
- Use formula when necessary.

Formulas
F_net = m * a
F_net = F_app - F_frict
F_frict = μ * F_norm
F_grav = m * g
F_norm = F_grav
μ = F_frict / F_norm
a = F_net / m
