Question Number 10914 by Saham last updated on 02/Mar/17

A 200 N force inclined at 40° above the horizontal , drag load along the  horizontal floor. coefficient of the kinetic friction between the load is 0.30   and the load experiences an acceleration of 1.2 m/s^2 ,  What is the mass of the load.

F_H =Fcos40°=200×0.766=153.2 N  F_V =Fsin40°=200×0.643=128.6 N  N=w−F_V =(10m−128.6) N  f=μ_k .N=0.3×(10m−128.6)=(3m−38.58) N         ΣF_x =m.a  F_H −f=m.a  153.2−(3m−38.58)=1.2m  191.78−3m=1.2m  4.2m=191.78  m=45.66 kg  (I use gravity acceleration=10 m/s^2 )
