Question
Two masses on two slopes are connected with a massless rope through a frictionless pulley as below. Since the
pulley is frictionless, the tension in the rope is the same on both sides. The 50 kg mass is on a frictionless surface.
The 100 kg mass is on a surface with kinetic and static friction coefficient of 0.3.
100 kg
50 kg
\ 30.0°
53.1°
a. In what direction would the blocks move? Show work!
b. What is the tension in the rope between the two masses?
c. If the blocks moved to the left to begin with at 1 m/s, what would their speed and direction of motion be after 3
s?
