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 6.0-kg object undergoes an acceleration of 2.0 m/s2. (a) What is the magnitude of the resultant force acting on it? (b) If this same force is applied to a 4.0-kg object, what acceleration is produced?
(a) What is the minimum force of friction required to hold the system of Figure P4.74 in equilibrium? (b) What coefficient of static friction between the 100.-N block and the table ensures equilibrium? (c) If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the 100.-N block and the table is 0.250, what hanging weight should replace the 50.0-N weight to allow the system to move at a constant speed once it is set in motion?

The systems shown in Figure P4.58 are in equilibrium. If the spring scales are calibrated in newtons, what do they read? Ignore the masses of the pulleys and strings and assume the pulleys and the incline in Figure P4.58d are frictionless. Figure P4.58
Two boxes of fruit on a frictionless horizontal surface are connected by a light string as in Figure P4.85, where m1 = 10.0 kg and m2 = 20.0 kg. A force of 50.0 N is applied to the 20.0-kg box. (a) Determine the acceleration of each box and the tension in the string. (b) Repeat the problem for the case where the coefficient of kinetic friction between each box and the surface is 0.10.

Two objects are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley as shown in Figure P4.30. Assume the incline is frictionless and take m1 = 2.00 kg, m2 = 6.00 kg, and = 55.0. (a) Draw free-body diagrams of both objects. Find (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of the objects, (c) the tension in the string, and (d) the speed of each object 2.00 s after it is released from rest. Figure P4.30
What force does a trampoline have to apply to a 45.0-kg gymnast to accelerate her straight up at 7.50 m/s2? Note that the answer is independent of the velocity of the gymnast—she can be moving either up or down, or be stationary.
Two forces are applied to a car in an effort to move it, as shown in Figure P4.12. (a) What is the resultant vector of these two forces? (b) If the car has a mass of 3 000 kg, what acceleration does it have? Ignore friction. Figure P4.12
