Two masses are connected by a string which passes over a pulley with negligible mass and friction. One mass hangs vertically and one mass slides on a frictionless horizontal surface. The vertically hanging mass is 6.00 kg and the mass on the horizontal surface is 4.00 kg. The acceleration of the 4.00 kg mass is

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.

Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the door. One child pushes with a force of 17.5 N at a distance of 0.600 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.450 m. What force must the second child exert to keep the door from moving? Assume friction is negligible.
