Create a plot of the force of static friction, fsfsf_s, versus the x component of the pulling force, FxFxF_x, for the experiment. Let the point FminFminF_min, along the horizontal axis, represent the minimum force required to accelerate the crate.
The graph between the static force and the x component of the pulling force is given as indicated in the figure.
Explanation:
The graph between the static force and the x component of the pulling force is given as indicated in the figure. The point of minimum force is also identified on the graph to indicate the minimum force required to overcome the static friction and accelerate the crate.
