A large box containing your new computer sits on the bed of your pickup truck. You are stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, you stomp on the gas and the truck accelerates. To your horror, the box starts to slide toward the back of the truck. Draw clearly labeled free-body diagrams for the truck and for the box. Indicate pairs of forces, if any, that are third-law action reaction pairs. (The horizontal truck bed is not frictionless.)

- An engine slows as it pulls two cars of an excursion train up a mountain. Draw a visual overview (motion diagram, force identification diagram, and free-body diagram) for the car just behind the engine. Ignore friction.arrow_forwardDirections: Draw the free-body diagram of the following situations presented. Situation #1: A softball player does a head-first dive and is sliding to the right across the infield dirt. Ignore air resistance. Situation #2: A crate sliding across a rough floor while being pulled using a rope to the right.arrow_forwardAn object of mass m is being acted by the following 3 forces: F1 = 500 N @ 45⸰ North of East, F2 = 750 N @ 30⸰ West of North and F3 = 400 N @ 30⸰ South of West. Find mathematically the magnitude and direction of a fourth force F4 that will maintain the object at equilibrium. Ignore the weight of the object.

The force makes an angle ?=30.0° abovethe horizontal, as shown in the figure. a)Find the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the surface on block. b)Find the acceleration of the box. c)If the box starts from rest, what would be its speed after it travels 2.00 m?arrow_forwardDraw a diagram of the situation and label the givens in the problem: The cart's mass and the hanger's mass. Also label the direction of the cart and hanger's acceleration. Draw two force diagrams. One for the cart and one for the hanger. You can treat the track as frictionless. Remember that the force in the string will be the same throughout the entire string. Then define an x-y coordinate system and find the x and y components of the forces in your diagrams.arrow_forwardA 10.0 kg crate is being supported by a slippery track that is oriented at 30° from the horizontal and a rope that is parallel to the track.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the direction of the force is in the direction of the initial velocity and negative value if the direction of the force is…arrow_forwardA box of mass 74.5 kg that is initially at rest is pulled by a rope at an angle of 30.0⁰ from the horizontal along a floor with a kinetic coefficient of friction of 0.717. A force of 769 N acts on the rope. Draw a free-body diagram of the situation. In your free-body diagram, include all of the involved forces resolved into the horizontal and vertical directions. Use your free-body diagram to determine how long it will take for the box to be moved 21.5 m horizontally. Your Answer: units Answerarrow_forward
- In the figure, two blocks are attached to each other by a massless string that is wrapped around a frictionless pulley. When the bottom 4.00-kg block is pulled to the left by the constant force P, the top 2.00-kg block slides across it to the right. Find the magnitude of the contact force acting on the bottom of the 4.00kg block if force P is about to move the block at a constant speed.
