The small slider of mass m is released from rest while in position A and then slides
Question:
The small slider of mass m is released from rest while in position A and then slides along the vertical-plane track. The track is smooth from A to D and rough (coefficient of kinetic friction μk) from point D on. Determine
(a) The normal force NB exerted by the track on the slider just after it passes point B.
b) The normal force NC exerted by the track on the slider as it passes the bottom point C.
(c) The distance s traveled along the incline past point D before the slider stops.

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.
