Answer the following with true, false, less than, greater than, or equal to.
The magnitude of the acceleration of object 1 is ..... that of object 2.
For the system of block 1, block 2 and the pulley, the center of mass accelerates
I know this can be solved with composite body formulation, using the weights, but I am trying to solve this with only the formula that uses :
(sum of areas)* (centroid) all over (sum of areas).
That method or integration?
The drawing shows Robin Hood(mass = 77.0 kg) about to escape froma dangerous situation. With one hand,he is gripping the rope that holds up achandelier (mass = 195 kg). When hecuts the rope where it is tied to thefloor, the chandelier will fall, and hewill b. pulled up toward a balconyabove. Ignore the friction between therope and the beams over which itslides, and find (a) the accelerationwith which Robin is pulled upward and (b) thetension in the rope while Robin escapes.
