A sleigh is being pulled horizontally by a train of horses at a constant speed of 8.05 m/s. The magnitude of the normal force exerted by the snow-covered ground on the sleigh is 6.37 103 N. a. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleigh and the ground is 0.23, what is the magnitude of the kinetic friction force experienced by the sleigh? b. If the only other horizontal force exerted on the sleigh is due to the horses pulling the sleigh, what must be the magnitude of this force?

A block is placed on a wooden plank, which is initially horizontal. One end of the plank is slowly raised to make it more and more inclined, and for a while the block stays in place on the plank and doesn't slide due to static friction. Finally, when the plank reaches an incline of 56.3oabove horizontal, the block begins to slide. What is the coefficient of static friction between the block and the plank?
