(choose chapter or problem)

Minimum Force A component is designed to slide a block of steel with weight across a table and into a chute (see figure). The motion of the block is resisted by a frictional force proportional to its apparent weight. (Let be the constant of proportionality.) Find the minimum force needed to slide the block, and find the corresponding value of Hint: is the force in the direction of motion, and is the amount of force tending to lift the block. So, the apparent weight of the block is 4xyx
