1. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 81 Newton’s Laws (III) Blocks on ramps, and other problems Serway and Jewett : 5.7, 5.8

2. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 82 Doing problems with “F=ma” Draw the free-body diagram carefully. You may need to know the direction of a from kinematics, before considering forces (for friction). Any axes will do, but some choices make the algebra simpler – set up equations for each direction. You need one (scalar) equation for each (scalar) unknown, in general (but, the mass will often cancel out).

3. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 83 Example: Show that the contact forces are equal FAFA

4. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 84 Accelerated motion Example: A block slides down a ramp, with friction m  Assume m, ,  k are known, and find the acceleration.

5. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 85 Accelerated motion Example: A block is pushed with a force F A at an angle to the horizontal, find the acceleration. Friction is given by μ k. m θ FAFA

6. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 86 Example Obtain an expression for the stopping distance for a skier moving down a slope with friction with an initial speed of v 1. Find the distance given that μ k =0.18, v=20m/s and θ=5.0º. θ d

7. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 87 Increasing  so that, the block slips, from which we get: f n mg This is an easy method of measuring Question : Can we calculate μ s ?

8. Physics 1D03 - Lecture 88 M m  Frictionless surfaces, ideal pulleys, etc. For what angle  is the system in equilibrium?
