Chapter 5, Problem 70GP

|| A block of mass m is placed against the vertical front of a cart of mass M as shown in Figure 5.71. Assume that the cart is free to roll without friction and that the coefficient of static friction between the block and the cart is μ_s. Derive an expression for the minimum horizontal force that must be applied to the block in order to keep it from falling to the ground.

Question 4.2a: The 5.50-kg block shown in the figure is suspended between two cords of negligible mass. The cord on the left is attached to a wall and is horizontal. A second cord attached to the block has tension T = 69.0 N directed at an angle above the horizon. The block is in equilibrium. Los m 4 Determine the tension in the cord attaching the block to the wall and the angle e. tension T N angle = Question 4.2b: The two masses shown in the figure are in equilibrium and the inclined plane is frictionless. 0 If = 33.1" and m₂ = 3.46 kg, determine the mass of m₁- kg mass m₁ = tension T 0 Question 4.2c: The three masses shown in the figure are in equilibrium and the inclined plane is frictionless. If € = 35.9", m₂ = 2.00 kg, and m₂ = 5.93 kg, determine the mass m, and the magnitude of the tension in the string connecting m₂ and m m₂ m₂ kg N m₂ m₁ m₂ Q Q

A heavy sled is being pulled by two people, as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the sled and the ground is µs 0.603, and the kinetic friction coefficient is Hk = 0.419. The combined mass of the sled and its load is m = 336 kg. The ropes are separated by an angle o = 22.0°, and they make an angle 0 31.1° with the horizontal. %3D Assuming both ropes pull equally hard, what is the minimum rope tension required to get the sled moving? minimum rope tension: N If this rope tension is maintained after the sled starts moving, what is the sled's acceleration? acceleration: m/s?

Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. Determine the force Q required to lift the 92-kg steel crate which rests against a 5° - wedge on a side and brick wall on the other side. The coefficient of frictions between the crate and wedge, wedge and surface, crate and surface are 0.45, 0.35, and 0.38, respectively. Use g=9.806 m/s2. Please, answer as soon as possible. Thank you.
