6. m = 200 kg vo= 20 m/s ms = 0.500 Crate on truck
A flatbed truck traveling at 20 m/s is carrying a 200 kg crate of heavy machinery - which is NOT tied down... The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the bed of the truck is The driver applies the brakes and brings the truck to rest as quickly as possible without the crate sliding, find the:
a) The maximum magnitude of the trucks deceleration when coming to a stop?
b) distance traveled during the acceleration?
