Newton’s Third Law of Motion

The horse pulls the cart and the cart pulls the horse in response as per Newton third law. So the big question is, “Don’t the two forces cancel each other? How does the cart accelerate?”

Question

Applications of Newton's Laws of Motion #4
A
A block is placed against the vertical front of a cart as shown in figure above. What acceleration must the cart
have so that block A does not fall? The coefficient of static friction between the block and the cart is ls. How
would an observer on the cart describe the behavior of the block?

A person pushes a box along the ground. The box has the force diagram shown below. Examine the force diagram to answer the following questions: a. Is the box in equilibrium? If so explain how you can tell. If not, explain why not. b. If the person wants the box to move at constant velocity, should they adjust their pushing on the block? If so, explain how they should change their push. If not, explain why they should change nothing about their push
Problem 14: Using a rope, a man pulls a block of ice across a frozen pond at a constant velocity, as shown in the figure. While they coefficients of static and kinetic friction for ice are low, they are not zero. Consider this problem to involve friction.

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.

In position 1, the shoulder is at 0 degrees while the elbow is at 90 degrees and in position 2, the arm is flexed as shown. a.) Consider the elbow joint and draw free body diagrams for each of the positions shown, including gravitational forces (consider the weight of the combined forearm and hand), elbow flexor forces, and the joint contact force. b.) Use the information provided below to solve for the magnitude of the elbow flexor force (in Newtons) for positions 1 and 2, the magnitude of the joint contact force (in Newtons), and the angle that the joint contact force makes with respect to the horizontal axis. • The platter of food weighs 7 lbs; the person weighs 175 lbs, and the person is 5’8” tall. • θ = 130…
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…
