Question:

A 2.5 kg block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of magnitude 6.0 N and a vertical force P are then applied to the block (Figure). The coefficients of friction for the block and surface are μs = 0.40 and μk = 0.25. Determine the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the block if the magnitude of is

(a) 8.0 N,

(b) 10 N, and

(c) 12 N.
