The figure shows an object of mass ?1 = 1.0 kg on an inclined frictionless surface. The angle of theinclined surface is ? = 25 with respect to the horizontal. The object of mass ?1 is connected by anideal string over an ideal pulley to a second object of mass ?2 = 2.05 kg on a horizontal frictionlesssurface below the overhang that is formed by the inclined surface. Furthermore, an external force ofmagnitude ???? = 10 N is exerted on the object with a mass ?1. We observe both objects accelerate. i. Draw separate free-body diagrams of all the forces acting on the two objects ii. Calculate the tension in the string connecting the two objects.
Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. In the system shown, a 150 N collar-pulley assembly slides on a horizontal shaft with coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.10 between the collar and the shaft, and is acted upon by a force P with a magnitude of P = 253.5 N at an angle θ = 30.35° as shown. Knowing that the assembly is initially at rest, what is the time when the velocity reaches to 3 m/s? Also, at this instant, find the tension in the cord and the velocity of block A.
The drawing shows Robin Hood(mass = 77.0 kg) about to escape froma dangerous situation. With one hand,he is gripping the rope that holds up achandelier (mass = 195 kg). When hecuts the rope where it is tied to thefloor, the chandelier will fall, and hewill b. pulled up toward a balconyabove. Ignore the friction between therope and the beams over which itslides, and find (a) the accelerationwith which Robin is pulled upward and (b) thetension in the rope while Robin escapes.
Objects of masses m1 = 4.00 kg and m2 = 9.00 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley as in the figure below. The object m1 is held at rest on the floor, and m2 rests on a fixed incline of θ = 39.5°. The objects are released from rest, and m2 slides 1.25 m down the slope of the incline in 3.85 s. A triangular structure is oriented such that its base rests upon a horizontal surface, its left side is perpendicular to its base, and its right side forms an incline of angle θ. A pulley is attached to the structure's apex. Two objects are connected by a cord that passes over the pulley. An object labeled m1 is attached to the left end of the cord and hangs such that it is very close to the horizontal surface. A rectangular object labeled m2 is attached to the end of the cord and rests upon the incline. A pale image of m1 is above m1, and a pale image of m2 is farther down the incline than m2. (a) Determine the acceleration of each object. (Enter…

A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10.
