M1 is connected to M2 with a rigid string. Both sits on a leveled ground of uk=0.25 with M3 sitting on top of M2. When a force F 25 N pulls on M1 forward with an angle 30.0 degrees with respect to the ground, all three blocks move at the same acceleration. (M1= 3.0 kg, M2=2.0 kg, M3=1.0 kg)
a. draw a free body diagram of each block,
b. what is the normal force and friction on M1 ?
c. what is the acceleration of the system (M1+M2+M3)?
d. use work and Kinetic theory to find the speed of the system at the time all blocks have traveled a displacement of 5.0 m.
A light rope is attached to a block with mass 4.00 kg that rests on a frictionless,horizontal surface. The horizontal rope passes over a frictionless, massless pulley, and ablock with mass m is suspended from the other end. When the blocks are released, thetension in the rope is 10.0 N. (a) Draw two free-body diagrams, one for the 4.00-kg blockand one for the block with mass m. (b) What is the acceleration of either block? (c) Findthe mass m of the hanging block. (d) How does the tension compare to the weight of thehanging block?
A block of mass m1 = 2.5 kg moving on a rough surface is connected by a light inextensible cord passing over a light frictionless pulley to a hanging block of mass m2 = 8.0 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the surfaces of the block and the table is μk = 0.27. See figure attached.
Determine a) the normal reaction on block 1,b) the acceleration of the blocks, andc) The tension, T, in the cord.
Incase the blocks on the diagram aren't clear, they both say M2 (subscript 2)
