Q6 of 57 Page 96

Suppose all the surfaces in the previous problem are rough. The direction of friction on B due to A

The direction of friction on B due to A will be upward because the weight of the block will be in downward direction and to balance or to oppose the downward force, the frictional force will be upward.

A scooter starting from rest moves with a constant acceleration for a time ∆t1, then with a constant velocity for the next ∆t2 and finally any other part. with a constant deceleration for the next ∆t3 to come to rest. A 500 N man sitting on the scooter behind the driver manages to stay at rest with respect to the scooter without touching. The force exerted by the seat on the man is
