36. A block of mass M is held at rest by two strings, as shown in the picture at left. The string pulling to the right has a tension of 100N in it, as indicated. Find the tension in the other string and find the mass of the block. [Hint: In this problem, there are two unknowns, but you can solve for them one at a time. One equation will end up involving only one of the unknowns.] 370% 100 N T 370 2

1. Two blocks are positioned on surfaces, each inclined at the same angle of 42.8 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 2.07 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction for both blocks and inclines is 0.510. Assume static friction has been overcome and that everything can slide.
