The two crates are connected by a very light rope (it's mass is much smaller than that of either block). You want to get done as soon as possible and pull as hard as you possibly can and manage to maintain a pulling force of F=600.0 N. As a result the crates are moving with an unknown constant acceleration a. Their masses 50.0 kg and m = 20.0 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between each crate and the floor is are mi H =0.300. g=9.81 m/s m2 Farrow_forwardA block accelerates at 4 m/s^2 down a rough ramp, inclined at 38 degrees. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and ramp? Include a sketch of the system (with a coordinate system) and a free body diagram.arrow_forward
- A 10.0 kg mass hangs from a rope, as shown in the figure. The rope passes over a fixed pulley, then under a movable pulley, and is attached to the ceiling as shown. The movable pulley has a mass m attached to it and moves at a constant speed. Find the tension in the rope. Assume that the masses of the pulleys are negligible.arrow_forwardA skier slides straight down an incline of 25 degrees without using her poles. The slope itself is 96 meters long, and the skier starts from rest at the top. What would the velocity of the skier be at the bottom of the incline if friction can be neglected? What would your answer be to the previous question if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.13 on the incline? Upon reaching the bottom of the incline in part b, she reaches a flat portion, and decides to just let friction slow her to a stop. How far does the skier travel along the horizontal portion before coming to a stop, if the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.28 on the flat portion?arrow_forwardA monkey pushes a box of mass 25 kg in a straight line across a rough floor. The applied force F has magnitude 85 N and acts downward at an angle 0 = 10° with respect to the horizontal, as shown below. The box is initially at rest at the position x/ a). Find the coefficient of friction between the box and the floor. and it has speed v2 = 0.55 m/s at position x2 = 3.50 m. 0 m, b). What is the net work done? c).

- The system is released from rest in the position shown. Calculate the tension T in the cord and the acceleration a (positive if to the right, negative if to the left) of the 37-kg block. The small pulley attached to the block has negligible mass and friction. (Suggestion: First establish the kinematic relationship between the accelerations of the two bodies.)

If m = 6.5 kg and F' = 9.9 N, what is the normal force exerted on the 5m block by the 8m block? Express your answer in N, to at least one digit after the decimal point.arrow_forwardGiven this image, assume it has friction. After rolling down the left hill, the boulder then continues up an adjacent hill on the right, reaching a vertical height of 25m before coming to a stop. It travelled a total distance of d= 500m.
