A block of mass m1= 10 kg is on a frictionless table to the left of a second block of mass m2 = 24 kg, attached by a horizontal string (Figure WU4.13). If a horizontal force of 120 N is exerted on the block m2in the positive x-direction, (a) use the system approach to find the acceleration of the two blocks. (b) What is the tension in the string connecting the blocks? (See Section 4.6.) Figure WU4.13
A woman at an airport is towing her 20.0-kg suitcase at constant speed by pulling on a strap at an angle above the horizontal (Fig. 4.76). She pulls on the strap with a 35.0-N force, and the friction force on the suitcase is 20.0 N. (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the suitcase. (b) What angle does the strap make with the horizontal? (c) What is the magnitude of the normal force that the ground exerts on the suitcase? Figure P4.76
An inventive child wants to reach an apple in a tree without climbing the tree. Sitting in a chair connected to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley (Fig. P4.88), the child pulls on the loose end of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 250 N. The childs true weight is 320- N, and the chair weighs 160 N. The childs feet are not touching the ground. (a) Show that the acceleration of the system is upward, and find its magnitude. (b) Find the force the child exerts on the chair. Figure P4.88
A student decides to move a box of books into her dormitory room by pulling on a rope attached to the box. She pulls with a force of 80.0 N at an angle of 25.0 above the horizontal. The box has a mass of 25.0 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between box and floor is 0.300. (a) Find the acceleration of the box. (b) The student now starts moving the box up a 10.0 incline, keeping her 80.0 N force directed at 25.0 above the line of the incline. If the coefficient of friction is unchanged, what is the new acceleration of the box?
The distance between two telephone poles is 50.0 m. When a 1.00-kg bird lands on the telephone wire midway between the poles, the wire sags 0.200 m. (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the bird. (b) How much tension does the bird produce in the wire? Ignore the weight of the wire.

Which of the following is the reaction force to the gravitational force acting on your body as you sit in your desk chair? (a) the normal force from the chair (b) the force you apply downward on the seat of the chair (c) neither of these forces
An inventive child named Nick wants to reach an apple in a tree without climbing the tree. Sitting in a chair connected to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley (Fig. P4.45), Nick pulls on the loose end of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 250 N. Nicks true weight is 320 N, and the chair weighs 160 N. Nicks feet are not touching the ground. (a) Draw one pair of diagrams showing the forces for Nick and the chair considered as separate systems and another diagram for Nick and the chair considered as one system. (b) Show that the acceleration of the system is upward and find its magnitude. (c) Find the force Nick exerts on the chair. Figure P4.45 Problems 45 and 46. 46. In the situation described in Problem 45 and Figure P4.45, the masses of the rope, spring balance, and pulley are negligible. Nicks feet are not touching the ground. (a) Assume Nick is momentarily at rest when he stops pulling down on the rope and passes the end of the rope to another child, of weight 440 N, who is standing on the ground next to him. The rope does not break. Describe the ensuing motion. (b) Instead, assume Nick is momentarily at rest when he ties the end of the rope to a strong hook projecting from the tree trunk. Explain why this action can make the rope break.
Two people pull as hard as they can on horizontal ropes attached to a boat that has a mass of 200 kg. If they pull in the same direction, the boat has an acceleration of 1.52 m/s2 to the right. If they pull in opposite directions, the boat has an acceleration of 0.518 m/s2 to the left. What is the magnitude of the force each person exerts on the boat? Disregard any other horizontal forces on the boat.
If a constant, nonzero force is applied to an object, what can you say about the velocity and acceleration of the object?
Integrated Concepts An elevator filled with passengers has a mass of 1700 kg. (a) The elevator accelerates upward from rest at a rate of 1.20 m/s2 for 1.50 s. Calculate the tension in the cable supporting the elevator. (b) The elevator continues upward at constant velocity for 8.50 s. What is the tension in the cable during this time?

(d) How high has the elevator moved above its original starting point, and what is its final velocity?
