Chapter 11, Problem 4Q
Suppose that the block were made to move up the inclined plane with a uniform speed by suspending masses on a string over the pulley. Derive an equation for the coefficient of kinetic friction for this case in terms of the suspended masses, the mass of the block, and the angle of decline. (Neglect any friction and mass effects of the pulley.)

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.
