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.

The previous step focused on friction for horizontal surfaces. As we discussed above, angled surfaces like the wedge below have different considerations. FN = mg cos(0) F₁ = mg F₁ = ? F₁ = ? Fy=mg cos(0) Specifically, we have the following considerations. 1. The normal force is not equal to mg. 2. There is a force acting along the angle of the wedge due to gravity. What is the coefficient of static friction ? Fx = mg sin(0) Let's consider the implications of this type of problem with the following examples. For all of the examples, the box has a mass of 25 kg. Imagine the box is on a surface that allows you to adjust the incline angle, 0. You find the maximum angle where the box remains stationary. That is, at any higher angle, and the box begins to slide. The static friction force at this maximum angle is 150 N. What is the angle 0 (in degrees)? Now you raise the incline to an angle of 60° greater than the angle of maximum static friction found above. At this angle, the box slides…
