Scenario 1
Push an empty truck
until it reaches
10mph (4.47 m/s)

Knowledge Base
Vo = 10 mph = 4.47 m/s
Vf =0 m/s
Time taken to reach 10 mph = 8.31 s Time taken to stop = 24.58 s

Initial Acceleration
Vo = at
4.47 = a(8.31)
a = 0.538 m/s2
Car's Deceleration
Vf = Vo + at
0 = 4.47 + a(24.58)
a = - 0.182 m/s

Knowledge Base
Mass of truck = 2678 kg
Cars decel = -0.182 m/s2
Find μf
ΣF = ma = μf N
ma = μf mg
-0.182 = μf (9.8)
μf = 0.019

Find Fstudents
ΣF = ma = Fstudents
– Ffriction
Fstudents
= [(2678)(0.538)]+[(0.019)(2678)(9.8)
= 1939.4 N
Find Ffriction
F = μf N
= (.019)(2678)(9.8)
= - 498.6 N

Knowledge Base
Vo = 10 mph = 4.47 m/s
Vf =0 m/s
Time taken to reach 10 mph = 10.95 s Time taken to stop = 22.58 s

Final Observations
Mass = 2678 kg => Ffriction
= -498.6 N
Mass = 2990 kg => Ffriction
= -586.04 N
According to our findings, Ffriction
is directly proportional to the mass of the object.
