Question:
A box with mass 10.0 kg moves on a ramp that is inclined at an angle of 55.0o above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp surface is µk = 0.300. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the box if you push on the box with a constant force F = 120.0 N that is parallel to the ramp surface and
(a) Directed down the ramp, moving the box down the ramp;
(b) Directed up the ramp, moving the box up the ramp.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
