Project 2: Truth is Stranger than Friction

Prelab

1. A 0.5 kg wood block sits on a tabletop. You push on the block with a horizontal force, but it

doesn't move. Why isn't the block moving? Draw a free body diagram of the stationary block

as you push on it. Make sure that both the direction and length of each force vector are

accurate, and label each force appropriately.
