Two blocks of unequal mass are tied together with a massless string that does not stretch and connected via a frictionless and massless pulley. Mass one, M1, rests on a frictionless table top. Mass two, M2, is released and both blocks begin to move. The blocks accelerate at the same rate since they are connected. What is the acceleration? (Choose the correct answer.) Zero Cannot be Determined. g/2 A value greater than g. g A value between zero and g.

a- We look at a cardboard box from above. The box weighs 28 N. It is on a smooth surface with which μS = 0.83 and μK = 0.65. Someone pushes it in the direction of the red arrow (0º) with a force F of 8 N. At that moment, the box is sliding towards 90º (it is sliding on the surface). Indicates the amount of force that friction is exerting on the box, in N. b-The direction of the friction force in the above case is towards... (answer in degrees)

NEXT Chapter 04, Problem 032 Chalkboard Video A spacecraft is on a journey to the moon. At what point, as measured from the center of the earth, does the gravitational force exerted on the spacecraft by the earth balance that exerted by the moon? This point lies on a line between the centers of the earth and the moon. The distance between the earth and the moon is 3.85 × 108 m, and the mass of the earth is 81.4 times as great as that of the moon. moon m earth em
1. A car of mass 500.0 kg has an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s. This car is about to perform a stunt for an upcoming action movie. While traveling on a horizontal road, it accelerates due to a force F=1500 N parallel to the road. 5 seconds later it reaches the edge of a cliff from where it falls for 50.0 m. At that moment the horizontal force stops existing. You can ignore friction in your calculations. a. Draw a sketch of the problem including all the information that is provided. Hint: You must include a reference frame in your drawing! b. Calculate velocity with which the car jumps the cliff. c. Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the car before and after the fall. d. Calculate the kinetic energy of the car before and after the force is exerted. e. Calculate the work done by force F. f. What are the speed (magnitude of the velocity) and direction with which the car impacts the ground?
m1 m2 F. m3 Three blocks are placed in contact with each other and their masses are ml = 10.9 kg, m2 = 20.9 kg, and m3 = 30.9 kg. The coefficients of kinetic and static friction between each pair of the surfaces in contact are 0.600 and 0.650, respectively.
