- A large crate of mass m is placed on the flatbed of a truck but not tied down. As the truck accelerates forward with acceleration a, the crate remains at rest relative to the truck. What force causes the crate to accelerate? (a) the normal force (b) the gravitational force (c) the friction force (d) the ma force exerted by the crate (e) No force is required.arrow_forwardA particle of mass m slides down an inclined plane under the influence of gravity. If the motion is resisted by a force f = kmυ2, show that the time required to move a distance d after starting from rest is where θ is the angle of inclination of the plane.arrow_forwardShow that the acceleration of any object down a frictionless incline that makes an angle θ with the horizontal is a = g sin θ. (Note that this acceleration is independent of mass.)arrow_forward
- the position of a 2-kg mass is given by x=2t^3-2t^2+5t. What is the net force on the mass at t=0 and t=1? (use m/s^2)arrow_forwardTwo blocks rest on frictionless inclines and are connected by a lightweight string that passes over a pulley of negligible mass. The masses of the blocks are M=3.4kg with an angle incline of 20 degrees and the second block is m=2.6kg with an incline angle of 40 degrees. Find the acceleration of the blocks and tension in the string.arrow_forwardA 2 kg block is placed on top of a 4 kg block, all of which can move freely on a 15 degree inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between the two blocks is 0.4 while that between the block and the plane is 0.3. Show that 35.6 N is the maximum constant force that can be applied to set the system in upward motion, without causing the the 2 kg block to slip.arrow_forward
- A block of mass m is on top of a block of mass M = 3m. The two blocks are connected by a string that passes over an ideal pulley. The bottom block is also tied to a string - exerting a force F, after the blocks have been set in motion, causes the blocks to move at constant velocity. m F Use g = 10 N/kg for this problem. The coefficient of kinetic friction between all surfaces in contact is 0.300. 中一華一中 F (a) For this scenario, which free-body diagrams (see above) are correct? Select the two correct diagrams, one for each block, and make sure you can identify which force is which. O The correct free-body diagram of the larger block is number 1.

- A person weighs a fish of mass m on a spring scale attached to the ceiling of an elevator as illustrated is shown.(A) Show that if the elevator accelerates either upward or downward, the spring scale gives a reading that is different from the weight of the fish. (B) Evaluate the scale readings for a 40.0-N fish if the elevator moves with an acceleration ay = ±2.00 m/s2.arrow_forwardA string over a pulley suspends two masses which both hang straight down. If the mass on the left is 1.7 kg and the mass right is 3.8 kg, find the distance the heavier mass will drop in 10 seconds.arrow_forwardTwo blocks are positioned on surfaces, each inclined at the same angle of 49.2 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The blocks are connected by a rope which rests on a frictionless pulley at the top of the inclines as shown, so the blocks can slide together. The mass of the black block is 4.81 kg, and this time there is NO friction. What is must be the mass of the white block if both blocks are to slide to the LEFT at an acceleration of 1.5 m/s^2? 4.83 kg 7.24 kg 3.31 kg 10.86 kgarrow_forward
