Transcribed Image Text:Three blocks (as shown in the figure) are released from rest and they start to accelerate with a
constant magnitude of 0.41 m/s2. Block A has mass M, block B has mass 2.2 M and block C has
mass 2.0M. The value of M is not given. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the table
and block B? The mass and friction in the pulleys can be ignored.

Equations: vf2 = vi2 + 2×a×Dx F = ma fk = mkN N = Fg = mgarrow_forwardTwo blocks are connected as shown. Their masses are m1 = 6.12 kg and m2 = 4.95 kg. The tabletop supporting Block 1 is frictionless. The masses for all strings and all pulleys in this problem are negligible. The friction in the pulleys is also negligible. Note the magnitude of the acceleration of mass m1 is twice that of mass m2 because of the way strings are connected to the two masses. 1.
