6. A wooden pallet carrying a load of 600.0 kg rests on a wooden floor. Static mu-0.280 Kinetic mu-0.170 a. A forklift driver decides to push it without lifting it. What force must be applied to just get the pallet moving? b. After a bit of time, the pallet begins to slide. How fast is the pallet moving after sliding under the same force you calculated in part a. for half a second? Hint: Find kinetic force first, determine net force then acceleration. c. If the forklift stops pushing, how far does the pallet slide before coming to a stop? Hint: Use the velocity from (b), kinetic force as net force.
