Asked by Braum
A pickup truck is carrying a toolbox, but the rear gate of the truck is missing, so the box will slide out if it is set moving. The coefficients of kinetic and static friction between the box and the bed of the truck are 0.340 and 0.750, respectively.
Starting from rest, what is the shortest time this truck could accelerate uniformly to 33.0 m/s (≈ 73.8 mph ) without causing the box to slide. (Hint: First use Newton’s second law to find the maximum acceleration that static friction can give the box, and then solve for the time required to reach 33.0 m/s .)

normal force = m g
max static = .75 m g
so m a = .75 m g for slide to start
or a = .75 g
now the slide
a = .75 g
v = a t
33 = .75 g t
t = 33/(.75*9.81)
max static = .75 m g
so m a = .75 m g for slide to start
or a = .75 g
now the slide
a = .75 g
v = a t
33 = .75 g t
t = 33/(.75*9.81)

What happens to the m?
