Question
Calculate the mass of sand added to the bucket.
Calculate the acceleration of the system.

Transcribed Image Text:A 28.0 kg block is connected to an empty 2.10
kg bucket by a cord running over a frictionless
pulley. The coefficient of static friction between
the table and the block is 0.50 and the coefficient
of kinetic friction between the table and the block
is 0.29. Sand is gradually added to the bucket
until the system just begins to move (Figure 1).

The mass of the box on the ramp, M, is unknown, but the mass hanging from down is given as 70.0 kg and the system accelerates to the right with an acceleration of a=a= 4.00 m/s2m/s2 (as shown below).
