$A$ $300 \ kg$ crate is dropped vertically onto a conveyor belt that is moving at $1.20 \ m/s$. $A$ motor maintains the belt's constant speed. The belt initially slides under the crate,with a coefficient of friction of $0.400$. After a short time,the crate is moving at the speed of the belt. During the period in which the crate is being accelerated,find the work done by the motor which drives the belt.

$A$ conveyor belt is moving at a constant speed of $2\, m s^{-1}$. $A$ box is gently dropped on it. The coefficient of friction between them is $\mu = 0.5$. The distance that the box will move relative to the belt before coming to rest on it,taking $g = 10\, m s^{-2}$,is ........... $m$.

$A$ block is kept on a rough horizontal surface. The acceleration of the block increases from $6 \ m/s^2$ to $11 \ m/s^2$ when the horizontal force acting on it increases from $20 \ N$ to $30 \ N$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is (Acceleration due to gravity $g = 10 \ m/s^2$):

$A$ movable steel plate is placed between fixed steel and brass plates and the stack of plates is subjected to a weight of $100 \ N$ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction for steel on steel is $0.57$ and for steel on brass is $0.44$. Assuming that the entire weight comes onto the stack and that the weight of the plates is negligible in comparison to the applied weight, the force required to move the middle plate (in $N$) is
