Question

Transcribed Image Text:42. A rope with mass m, is attached
QC to a block with mass m as in Fig-
Sure P5.42. The block rests on a
т,
ть
frictionless, horizontal surface.
The rope does not stretch. The
free end of the rope is pulled
to the right with a horizontal force F. (a) Draw force dia-
grams for the rope and the block, noting that the tension
in the rope is not uniform. (b) Find the acceleration of the
system in terms of m, m, and F. (c) Find the magnitude of
the force the rope exerts on the block. (d) What happens
to the force on the block as the rope's mass approaches zero?
What can you state about the tension in a light cord joining a
pair of moving objects?
