- The figure shows a box of dirty money (mass m₁ = 3.5 kg) on a frictionless plane inclined at angle 0₁ = 34°. The box is connected via a cord of negligible mass to a box of laundered money (mass m₂ = 1.6 kg) on a frictionless plane inclined at angle 02 = 68°. The pulley is frictionless and has negligible mass. What is the tension in the cord? Number Units M²1 m2 02/arrow_forwardStudents are performing an experiment with the setup shown above, where a block of mass M sits on a horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is μk. The block is connected to a hanging object over a pulley. The pulley has negligible mass and friction. The string connecting the two is very light and does not stretch. The students add mass to the hanging object so that its mass is m, where m < M, and the block-hanging object system is released from rest. The hanging object falls for a distance h, at which point it collides with the ground and comes to rest. The block on the table keeps sliding and travels a total distance d before coming to rest. It does not reach the pulley, and d > h. A student creates a data table (see image) for the net force exerted on the block during the speeding up and slowing down portions of the experiment. (d) Does the block of mass M spend more time speeding up or slowing down? Justify your answer.arrow_forwardTwo ropes are attached to a tire on the ground. The first rope exerts a force of 205.

Block 2 is on a frictionless surface tilted at 0 = 23 °. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block 1 and the horizontal surface is 0.25. The pulley has negligible mass and friction.
