An adventurous model got bored and decided to try something new. She went out to the top of a steep icy road and went down on a sled. If friction is so small that it can be neglected, which of the following statements correctly describes the physics in the situation? Ad B C Only gravity acts on the model-sled between points A and B. The model-sled experiences no acceleration between A and C. The sled will stop somewhere near B. There is no force acting on the model-sled between points B and C. The sled will continue moving with constant speed from B onwards.
A 15.0 kg load of bricks hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionless pulley. A 28.0 kg counter weight is attached to the other end of the rope, as shown in the figure.
