Two blocks are connected by a (massless) string that runs over a (massless, frictionless) pulley as shown. Assume there is no friction between block 1 and the surface of the incline. If m1 = 3.7 kg and m2 = 6.7 kg, what is the tension in the string? Express your answer in N, to at least one digit after the decimal point.
In the figure below, a block of mass M hangs at rest. The rope that is fastened to the wall is horizontal and has a tension off 52 N. The rope that is fastened to the ceiling has a tension of 91N and makes an angle theta with the ceiling. What is the angle theta? What is the mass M? You MUST draw all the force vectors on the figure with their corresponding unit vectors( i , j ,k ) and then write the relation between forces based your sketches. Show your complete solution
Two dimensional dynamics often involves solving for two unknown quantities in two separate equations describing the total force. The block in (Figure 1) has a mass m=10kg and is being pulled by a force F on a table with coefficient of static friction μs=0.3. Four forces act on it: The applied force F (directed θ=30 above the horizontal). The force of gravity Fg=mg (directly down, where g=9.8m/s2). The normal force N (directly up). The force of static friction fsfs (directly left, opposing any potential motion). If we want to find the size of the force necessary to just barely overcome static friction (in which case fs=μsNfs=μsN), we use the condition that the sum of the forces in both directions must be 0. Using some basic trigonometry, we can write this condition out for the forces in both the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, as: Fcosθ−μsN=0 Fsinθ+N−mg=0 In order to find the magnitude of force FF, we have to solve a system of two equations with both FF and the…

The drag force F on a boat is jointly proportional to the wetted surface area A on the hull and the square of the speed s of the boat. A boat experiences a drag force of 220 lb when traveling at 5 mi/h with a wetted surface area of 40 ft2. How fast must a boat be traveling if it has 28 ft2 of wetted surface area and is experiencing a drag force of 150 lb? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) mi/h
