On a horizontal plane a block of mass m = 0.30 kg is placed and initially held at rest. To this block a massless string is attached and it initially keeps another block of mass M = 0.50 kg vertically at rest via a fixed pulley as shown in Figure. The coefficient ofkinetic friction between the block m and the plane is Pk -0.25, but the friction between the block M and the vertical wall is zero. Calculate the tension T by string in N. (Hint: First calculate the acceleration of m or M. And set up the equation of motion for Mto find the tension T.)TmM

Here, we aply Newton's second law by drawing free body diagrams of both the masses, to get the…

The figure below shows a block weighing 22 N in contact with a vertical wall. Two forces are applied to the block, in addition to gravity, a horizontal force F of magnitude 60 N which pushes the block against a vertical wall and a force P of magnitude 62 N which pushes upward on the bottom of the block parallel to the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the block is 0.55 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between them is 0.38. Is the frictional force acting on the block static or kinetic, what is its magnitude and in what direction does it point? F P
