Scenario: A chair with a mass of 20.0 kg is attached to one end of a frictionless pulley system via a strong massless rope. The other end of the rope is attached to a steel water tank sitting on a flat horizontal concrete surface (see the image to the right). The coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete is 0.45 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the surfaces is 0.30. The water tank, which is full of water, has sprung a leak. The combined mass of the water and the tank is 500 kg. This mass slowly decreases as the water leaks from the hole. You (i.e. my mass is 55.7 KG) are sitting at rest in the seat. You and the seat will remain at rest as long as the force of static friction is strong enough to hold you. Task: LET [DOWN] and [RIGHT] be positive.

- To push a 25 kg wooden box up a 30° inclined plane, a man exerts a force of 150 N parallel to the inclined plane.

Establish the convenient axis and reflect the component of the forces along the axis.arrow_forwardYou hang a book bag on a spring scale and place the bag on a platform scale so that the platform scale reads 29.7 N and the spring scale reads 17.6 N. Part A Draw a force diagram for the bag to represent the situation. Fs on B is the elastic force exerted by the spring on the bag, Np on B is the normal force exerted by the platform scale on the bag, and FE on B is the gravitational force exerted by Earth on the bag.

- Find a pattem from the following experimental data A spring scale pulls. 1-kg block over a medium smooth surface. The reading of the scale can be used to determine the magnitude of the maximum static friction force- this instance, the force when the block starts to slide. In some experiments, a compressible spring also pushes vertically down on the block (see the second block). A. Use the data in the table to draw a graph of the maximum static friction force versus the normal force exerted by the surface on the block. B. Find the slope of the graph you just made. What are the units for the slope?arrow_forwardPlease refer to the picture with the formulas and constants that need to be used in this problem. Harzan wants to swing from one bank of the river to the other using an overhaning vine. As he swings, he traces out an arc of a circle. Part 1) Please draw and label a free body diagram of Harzan at the bottom of the swing. Answer: we have to discuss the motion of the swinging person Part 2) What forces act as the radial force in the circular motion? Answer: In the radial direction centrifugal force will act as a source of tension Part 3) Is this uniform circular motion? Explain Answer: The motion is similar to that of a pendulum, thus the vine-swinger system acts like a physical pendulum, the motion will not be uniform circular. Part 4) The vine is 6.2 m long, and Harzan's mass is 85 kg. At the bottom of his swing, he is travelling at 4.3 m/s. What is the magnitide of the radial acceleration that Harzan experiences?
