A 4kg block sits on top of a 6kg block which is on a frictionless surface. The coefficients of friction between the two blocks are μs=0.5 and μk=0.3. Calculate the maximum force you can pull on the bottom block with so that the objects move together.

It is pushed with constant force F₀ from 𝓍 = 0 to 𝓍 = L across a horizontal surface whose coefficient of kinetic friction is μₖ = μ₀ ( 1 - 𝓍/L ) . That is, the coefficient of friction decreases from μ₀ at 𝓍 = 0 to zero at 𝓍 = L. b. Find an expression for the block's speed as it reaches position L.404views1rank
