When a crate slides down an incline at a constant velocity, it is experiencing a balanced force situation. The force of gravity pulling it downhill is counteracted by the force of friction acting in the opposite direction. This results in the crate moving steadily without speeding up or slowing down.
The force needed to slide the crate at constant velocity is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force of friction. The force of friction can be calculated as the product of the coefficient of friction and the normal force acting on the crate (weight of the crate). Therefore, the force needed would be 250 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 0.25 = 612.5 N.
No. On a horizontal surface the normal force is equal to weight. If you are moving at constant velocity you only overcome frictional force, which is not equal to weight. This is easier to see on an incline. At some point an object will slide at constant velocity down the incline. This is related to trig functions of the angle of incline multiplied by the weight which is always less than the weight.
Is mgsinΘ > μmgcosΘ ? Is sinΘ > μ cosΘ ? Is sin35º > .65 cos35º Is .573 > .532 => Yes, so crate slides down the plane, no matter what the mass is or acceleration due to gravity
The direction of static friction on an incline is parallel to the surface of the incline and opposite to the direction in which an object would slide down the incline.
The angle of slide for the playground equipment is the degree of incline or slope of the slide surface.

CV stands for (constant velocity). These type carburetors are normally used on motorcycles. A CV carburetor (Constant Velocity) incorporates a vacuum operated slide that varies the venturi size within the carburetor, thus maintaining a constant velocity. The slide also holds a needle that when lifted by the opening slide varies the amount of atomized fuel delivered.

The angle of slide for the playground equipment is the degree of incline or slope of the slide surface.
F=ma constant speed would mean 'a' acceleration is zero thus force zero. The puck would be in equilibrium, and the force would be zero at constant motion. Constant motion is constant velocity including the constant zero velocity.
The force of friction would also be 1 N, equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force you are pushing with. This equal and opposite force of friction is what allows the book to move at a constant velocity.
It is more difficult to slide a crate starting from rest because static friction exists between the crate and the surface, requiring a greater force to overcome. Once the crate is already sliding, kinetic friction is less than static friction, making it easier to keep moving with a lower force.
The answer depends on the incline (slope) of the slide. And, if you want a more realistic answer, a measure of the friction between the child and the slide.
Steady friction refers to the constant resistance that occurs when two surfaces slide against each other at a constant velocity. The friction force remains consistent as long as the relative motion between the surfaces is constant. This type of friction is important in engineering applications where precise control of motion is necessary.
