Exam-hall rules, last crate

This is the boss. No calculator — today g=10 m/s2g = 10\ \mathrm{m/s^2}, the round number every physicist keeps for mental work, and the values are chosen to fit in your head. One crate, one long problem, and every answer feeds the next: weight, then the normal force, then friction's cut, then the net, then Newton, then the speed it all buys. Write each line down as you go — one early slip rolls all the way to the end of the dock.

Everything from the chapter rides in it. 5★ under par here is the chapter crown. Clock in.

mW

W=mgW = m g

  • WW= Weight (force)
  • mm= Mass (mass)
Weight (W = mg) solver →
Nfkμk

fk=μkNf_k = \mu_k N

  • fkf_k= Kinetic friction force (force)
  • μk\mu_k= Coefficient of kinetic friction
  • NN= Normal force (force)
Kinetic Friction Force (f = μₖN) solver →
mFa

F=maF = m a

  • FF= Force (force)
  • mm= Mass (mass)
  • aa= Acceleration (acceleration)
Newton's Second Law solver →
v0vat

v=v0+atv = v_0 + a t

  • vv= Final velocity (speed)
  • v0v_0= Initial velocity (speed)
  • aa= Acceleration (acceleration)
  • tt= Time (time)
Final Velocity (Uniform Acceleration) solver →
