Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

Question

a box of ant aunts (total
mass m1 = 1.65 kg) and a box of ant uncles
(total mass m2= 3.30 kg) slide down an inclined plane while
attached by a massless rod parallel to the plane. The angle of incline
is u = 30.0°. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the
aunt box and the incline is m1 = 0.226; that between the uncle box
and the incline is m2= 0.113. Compute (a) the tension in the rod
and (b) the magnitude of the common acceleration of the two
boxes. (c) How would the answers to (a) and (b) change if the uncles
trailed the aunts?
