Two blocks are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley. The system is released from rest while m2 is on the floor and m1is a distance h above the floor.
a. Assuming m1 > m2, find an expression for the speed of m1 just as it reaches the floor.
b. Taking m1 = 6.5 kg, m2 = 4.2 kg, and h = 3.2 m, evaluate your answer to part (a)
c. find the speed of each block when m1 has fallen a distance of 1.6 m.
You are quite excited with the lesson in friction that you learned in Physics 1A that you decide to measure the coefficient of kinetic friction of surfaces. You try
your idea on a glass surface and a glass cup (mass = 0.15 kg). You set the glass cup moving with an initial speed of 2.8 m/s. After travelling a length of 1 m, it
stopped. What then is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the glass-glass surfaces?
