An 8.00 kg block of steel is at rest on a horizontal table. Thecoefficient of static friction between the block and the table is0.50. A force is to be applied to the block. What is the magnitudeof that applied force if it puts the block on the verge of slidingwhen the force is directed in the following directions?

(a) horizontally
N

(b) upward at 60.0° from the horizontal

A 6.01-kg block is placed on top of a 14.7-kg block that rests on a frictionless table. The coefficient of static friction between the two blocks is 0.553. What is the maximum horizontal force that can be applied before the 6.01-kg block begins to slip relative to the 14.7-kg block, if the force is applied to (a) the more massive block and (b) the less massive block?

A light spring of force constant 3.85N/m is compressed by 8.00 cmand held between a .250 kg block on the left and a .500 kg block onthe right. Both blocks are at rest on a horizontal surface. Theblocks are released simultaneously so that the spring tends to pushthem apart. What is the maximum velocity each block attains if thecoefficient of kinetic friction between each block and the surfaceis:

A) 0
B) .100
C) .463
