A 350 g block of wood on a horizontal plane is fastened to a cord passing over a frictionless pulley and attached to a 265 g load. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and plane is 0.45 a. Determine the acceleration of the system after it is set in motion. b. What is the force in the chord?

A cart of mass 0.85 kg is on a track, connected by a string over a pulley to a hanging mass of 0.1 kg. A friction pad is attached to the bottom of the cart, and you push the cart so that it first moves toward the sensor, then away from the motion sensor. Assuming the magnitude of the force of friction remains constant throughout the entire motion of the cart, the magnitude of the net acceleration of the cart is which of the following? a. larger when the cart is moving towards the motion sensor b. larger when the cart is moving away from the motion sensor c. the magnitude of the acceleration cannot be predicted

You are in a rocketship in deep space accelerating upwards with acceleration A. At the top of an inclined plane in the rocketship, you place a block of mass m. The length of the incline is L. If you let go of the block, what is the time taken by the block to reach the bottom of the incline? θ is the angle that the incline makes with the horizontal, and you make sure that the incline cannot move. Assume no friction.

A cardboard box rests on the floor of an elevator. The box has a mass m = 2.75 kg and the elevator has an upward acceleration of a.   a.  Write an expression for the sum of the forces acting on the box in the y-direction, ΣFy, given that up is the positive y-direction. Your answer should be in terms of FN, m, and g.  b. Write an expression for the normal force, FN, that the block experiences in terms of the elevator's acceleration, the block's mass, and the acceleration of gravity.  c.  If the elevator's acceleration has a magnitude of g in the downward direction, what would the normal force, FN1 be in Newtons?  d.If the elevator's acceleration had a magnitude of g in the upward direction, what would the normal force FN2 be in Newtons?

A teenager of mass m1 = 56 kg pushes backwards against the ground with his foot as he rides his skateboard. This exerts a horizontal force of magnitude F foot = = 18.5 N. The skateboard has m2 = 2.6 kg. a. Write an expression for the magnitude of the horizontal component of force that the ground exerts on the teenagers foot, F ground. b. Write an expression in terms to given quantities for the magnitude of the skateboard acceleration, a , while the teenager is pushing backwards on the ground? c. What is the numerical value of the magnitude of the acceleration, a, in m/s square?

A system comprised blocks, a light frictionless pulley, and connecting ropes is shown in the figure. The B block has a mass of 9.3 kg and is on a perfectly smooth horizontal table. The surfaces of the A block, which has a mass of 8.2 kg, are rough, with Hk = 0.25 between the block and the table. If the C block with mass 9.9 kg accelerates downward when it is released, find its acceleration. A B C.

Newton's first law states that: Group of answer choices Ia. n the absence of any net force acting on it, a mechanical system is necessarily at rest. b. In the absence of a non-zero net force acting on it, a mechanical system keeps moving in the same direction at the same speed (including the case v=0). c. For any pair A/B of objects interacting with one another, the force of A acting on B is the equal-opposite of the force of B acting on A. d. The rate of change of the velocity of a system is proportional to the net force acting on it.

Two ice skaters, with masses of 36.0 kg and 75.0 kg, are at the center of a 40.0 m diameter circular rink. The skaters push off against each other and glide to opposite edges of the rink.
