In the figure, three masses are attached by cords that loop over frictionless pulleys. Block B lies on a frictionless table. mA = 5.4 kg, mB = 6.2 kg, and mc = 10.7 kg. Find the tension in the cord to the right (between masses B and C) once the blocks have been released and are free to move. Your answer should be in N: Question Help: Read B
A 1500-N crate is to be held in place on a ramp that rises at 30.0° above the horizontal (see figure). The massless rope attached to the crate makes a 22.0° angle above the surface of the ramp. The coefficients of friction between the crate and the surface of the ramp are uk = 0.450 and us = 0.650. The pulley has no appreciable mass or friction. What is the MAXIMUM weight w that can be used to hold this crate stationary on the ramp? %3D W= ? Crate 22.0° Ramp 30.00

A block of mass m = 2.90 kg is pushed a distance d = 7.80 m along a frictionless horizontal table by a constant applied force of magnitude F = 16.0 N directed at an angle ? = 24.0° below the horizontal as shown in the figure below. A block labeled m is on a horizontal surface. An arrow labeled vector F points downward and to the right at an angle ? above the horizontal, and acts upon the upper left corner of the block. A faded image of the block is a distance d to the right of the block. (a) Determine the work done on the block by the applied force. J(b) Determine the work done on the block by the normal force exerted by the table. J(c) Determine the work done on the block by the force of gravity.

A stone has a mass of 8.79 g and is wedged into the tread of an automobile tire, as the drawing shows. The coefficient of static friction between the stone and each side of the tread channel is 0.818. When the tire surface is rotating at 10.9m/s, the stone flies out the tread. The magnitude FN of the normal force that each side of the tread channel exerts on the stone is 2.46 N. Assume that only static friction supplies the centripetal force, and determines the radius r of the tire (in terms of m)
In the figure, a cord runs around two massless, frictionless pulleys. A canister with mass m = 41 kg hangs from one pulley, and you exert a force F on the free end of the cord. (a) What must be the magnitude of F if you are to lift the canister at a constant speed? (b) To lift the canister by 3.5 cm, how far must you pull the free end of the cord? During that lift, what is the work done on the canister by (c) your force (via the cord) and (d) the gravitational force? (Hint: When a cord loops around a pulley as shown, it pulls on the pulley with a net force that is twice the tension in the cord.)
