Question 5 The situation for this problem is as explained in question 4. Block E is moving up and to the left (and Block D is moving down). The mass of Block D is 3.2 kg. The mass of Block E is 2.4 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between Block E and the plane is 0.5. The inclined plane is inclined at an angle of θ = 32 degrees above horizontal. Calculate the tension in the string (in units of newtons).
Can you please answer these.
In the previous question the acceleration was found to be a= 1.675
Question 5
The situation for this problem is as explained in question 4.
Block E is moving up and to the left (and Block D is moving down).
The mass of Block D is 3.2 kg.
The mass of Block E is 2.4 kg.
The coefficient of kinetic friction between Block E and the plane is 0.5.
The inclined plane is inclined at an angle of θ = 32 degrees above horizontal.
Calculate the tension in the string (in units of newtons).
Question 7
This question is the same as question 5 with the exceptions that
- The numbers have changed, and
- Block E is moving down and to the right (this refers to velocity)
Block E is moving down and to the right (and Block D is moving up).
The mass of Block D is 2.9 kg.
The mass of Block E is 3.9 kg.
The coefficient of kinetic friction between Block E and the plane is 0.41.
The inclined plane is inclined at an angle of θ = 31 degrees above horizontal.
Calculate the acceleration of Block E (in units of meters per second squared). For the purpose of this question, the acceleration is positive it points up and to the left (it is negative if it points down and to the right).
