The blocks are joined by an inextensible cable as shown. If the system is released from rest, what is the tension (in Newton) produced in the cable after block A has moved 2m? Assume the coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the plane is 0.25 and the pulley is weightless and frictionless. The Mass of A is 200kg; the Mass of B is 300kg.
A hammer head H having a weight of 0.26 lb is moving downwards at 40 ft/s when it strikes the head of a nail of negligible mass and drives it into a block of wood as shown. Find the impulse on the nail if it is assumed that the grip at A is loose, the handle has a negligible mass, and the hammer stays in contact with the nail while it comes to rest.

A spring is such that a 4-lb weight stretches the spring 0.40 ft. The 4-lb weight is attached to the spring (suspended from a fixed support) and the system is allowed to reach equilibrium. Then the weight is started from equilibrium position with an imparted upward velocity of 2 ft/sec. Assume that the motion takes place in a medium that furnishes a retarding force of magnitude numerically equal to the speed, in feet per second, of the moving weight. Determine the position of the weight as a function of time.
