Two   blocks  are  connected  via  a  pulley,  both  blocks  have  a  mass  of  10.kg.  One  block  rests  on  a  horizontal  surface and  the  other  one hangs  freely by  a  cord which  passes over  a  pulley.  Assume  the  cord  does not  stretch, ignore  mass  of  pulley  and  cord,  therefore  acceleration  is  the  same  for  both  blocks  and  tension  is  the  same  for  both  blocks.  The  hanging  block  moves  down so  the  block  lying on  the  horizontal  surface  moves  to  the  right.

 

d. Crates filled with  fruits   were  placed  at the  back  of a  truck to  be  distributed to the  provinces.  Coefficient  of  static  friction  between box  and  the  floor  of  the  truck is  0.25  Find the maximum  deceleration  (m/s^2) of  the  truck  and  at  the  same  time avoid the  sliding  of  the  boxes against  the  back of  the  driver’s seat.
