Consider the system in the picture below: a cart of mass M with a static friction coefficient u is connected through a massless string to a hanging mass m. M is a capital letter, m is lower case. Write them as such, or vour equations will be confusing, M We want to find the maximum value of the hanging mass m such that the system is in equilibrium. 1. Free body diagram (FBD): Draw a FBD for each: the Cart and the hanging mass. Clearly show all the forces. 2. Clearly write the equilibrium equations for the cart in the horizontal and vertical direction. 3. Clearly write the equilibrium equation for the hanging mass. 4. Solve the system of the three equations above for the hanging mass m. Show your calculation to get credit. 5. What would happen if mass m exceeds this value? Explain.
e1 A double incline is setup with two ramps as shown. The left block has a mass m1, and the right block has a mass m2. The left ramp is rough with kinetic friction coefficient uy and an angle 01. The ramp on the right is frictionless with an angle 02. The pulley is massless and frictionless. Assume the system starts accelerating to the right on initial release. a) In the Space below draw a set of free body diagrams (or a single one if taking that method which is fine) to fully describe all forces in this problem. b) Find an equation for the acceleration of the system.

This is a SINGLE question with 2 parts, please answer them with FORCE DIAGRAM, THIRD LAW PAIR AND CALCULCULATIONS. There is a girl in a ship. The total mass of both is 150kg. She hooks a big fish who's mass is 250kg. The fish pulls the boat in the opposite direction of shore (which is in right direction) at a CONSTANT rate of one m/s. A) there is a wind force of 500 newtons towards shore which is the left direction, and the force of water on the ship is 2000 newtons upwards. What is the force of the big fish? Draw force diagram, third law pair and show calculations. Explain your work. B) now, there is no wind, nor wind force. But everything else is the same. What is the acceleration of the ship? Draw force diagram, third law pair and show calculations. Explain your work.
Figure 3 L Before d. X2 After An orange block of mass 2.14 kg is on an inclined plane. There is no friction between the block and the plane except in the region shown in red and black in Figure 3 above. The plane is inclined at an angle of 0 = 16.5 degrees above horizontal. For the purposes of this problem, the acceleration of objects in freefall is g = 9.81 m/s?. The block begins at rest, leaning against a spring with a spring constant of k = 716 newtons per meter. At the start, the spring has a compressed length of x1 = 0.33 meters. The spring then expands to its equilibrium length of x2 = 0.63 meters, sending the block sliding up the ramp. The block has no friction with the plane except in the single region of length L = 0.8 meters, shown in red and black above. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and this region is uK = 0.24. The block slides past this region and continues up the plane. What is the speed of the block, in units of meters per second, when it has…
