Concept explainers
As the elevator approach its destination, its speed decreases. (It continues to move downward.)
i. How does the acceleration of crate A compare to that of crate B? Explain.
ii. In the spaces provided below, draw and label separate free-body diagram for the crates in this case.
iii. Rank the forces on the crates according to magnitude, from largest to smallest. Explain your reasoning, including how you used
iv. In the spaces provided at right, draw arrows to indicate the direction of the net force on each crate. If the net force on either crate is zero, state so explicitly. Explain.

- 1. Your free body diagram for Part 1 should have looked it this. F. max Drag and drop the heads and tails of the vectors to construct the free-body diagram. Note: the applied force is directed to the right. Note: the angles may be within ±15°, and the magnitudes are not considered. = Suppose you have a 120-kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor. Use µg = 0.5 and μ = 0.3 . Assume all quantities are correct to 3 significant figures. a = 1.96 ffric; 180° (b) What is the maximum force you can exert horizontally on the crate without moving it? Enter to 3 significant figures ✔N N: 90° a m/s² mg; 270° F:0° (c) If you continue to exert this force once the crate starts to slip, what will its acceleration then be? Enter to 3 significant figuresarrow_forwardPlease solve the problem below. Explain your reasoning behind every step to solve the problem.arrow_forwardIgnoring friction, explain what would occur in the following situation and how it relates to Newton’s Third law. a. A cannon shoots out a cannon ball. Draw and label the action and reaction forces between the cannon and cannonball. b. How does the cannon's acceleration compare to the cannon ball and why?arrow_forward
- Two masses B and C are connected with a string passing over a friction less pully, assuming the coefficient of friction between the table and block is μ=0.4 , and the acceleration of gravity g=9.81 m/s2.

The pullies are massless and frictionless. The mass m, moves downward as shown. Answer the following questions. a) Draw the free body diagrams for cach of the masses. b) Apply Newton's second law to each of the masses. DO NOT solve the equations yet. Just set them up. c) Solve your equations in part b) for the acceleration of the system. Your expression for the acceleration should only contain mi, m2, m3, 0, pk, and various constants.arrow_forwardPlease question 2 with its sub-section.arrow_forwardFull steps to the parts pleasearrow_forward
