At your job at a warehouse, you have designed a method to helpget heavy packages up a 15° ramp. The package is attached to arope that runs parallel to the ramp and passes over a massivepulley with a moment of inertia Im, at the top of the ramp. The other end of the rope is attached to acounterweight that hangs straight down. The mass of thecounterweight is always adjusted to be twice the mass of the package.10.0 kg-m and radius of 0.20m= 50 kg||15°However, your boss is worried that the acceleration of the package will make it too difficult to handle atthe top of the ramp and tells you to calculate the acceleration of the package.To determine the influence of friction on the package by the ramp, you run some tests and find that using ahorizontal force of 250 N, you can push a 50.0 kg package at a constant speed along a level floor made ofthe same material as the ramp.What will be the acceleration of the package up the ramp?

The coefficient of friction is given by, μ = FN =25050×10 = 0.5 where F is the horizontal force N…

A professor sits on a rotating stool that is spinning at 10.0 while she holds a heavy weight in each of her hands. Her outstretched hands are 0.765 m from the axis of rotation, which passes through her head into the center of the stool. When she symmetrically pulls the weights in closer to her body, her angular speed increases to 20.5. Neglecting the mass of the professor, how far are the weights from the rotational axis after she pulls her arms in?
