Answer:
B
Two small cylindrical plastic containers with flat bottoms are placed on a turntable that has a smooth flat surface. Canister A is empty; canister B is full. Each canister is the same distance r from the center. The coefficient of static friction between the canisters and the turntable is µs. The speed of the turntable is gradually increased.

- consider a force vector = 300 g at the 40º angle. resolve this vector into its x- and y-components by the following methods: a) graphical: make the x- and y-axes. use a scale of 30 g = 1.0 cm, and draw an arrow of appropriate length at 40º. drop perpendiculars from the tip of the vector to the x- and y-axes. measure the lengths of these lines and hence find the magnitudes of fx and fy. (do not calculate using trigonometry) record the results. b) analytical: compute the magnitudes of fx and fy by using the component method (equations 3-3 and 3-4). record the results.arrow_forwardThe following figure and situation are to be used for questions 1 to 4. An object, attached at the origin, point O, is being pulled by three ropes, A, B, and C, as shown in the figure. The tension produced in these ropes are as follows: TOA: 1 500 N, along the x-y plane, 36.9" from the positive x-axis, and 53.1 from the positive y-axis ToB: -800i +800j+400k N Toc: 1 697 N, pointing towards (-1,1,-4) N B y 0 C (-1,1,-4) 36.9° Aarrow_forwardProblem 10 : A cord connected at one end to a block which can slide on an inclined plane has its other end wrapped around a cylinder resting in a depression at the top of the plane as shown in (Figure 1). Part A Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume there is no friction. Express your answer using two significant figures. Part B Determine the speed of the block after it has traveled 1.30 m along the plane, starting from rest. Assume the coefficient of friction between all surfaces is μ = 0.0280. Since the block is much lighter than the cylinder, ignore tension in the string when calculating the normal force on the cylinder. Do not ignore tension in the string when calculating the net torque (including friction) on the cylinder.arrow_forward
