Two blocks are sliding to the right accross a horizontal surface, as the drawing shows. In Case A the mass of each block is 3.0 kg. In Case B the mass of block 1 (the block behind) is 6.0 kg, and the mass of black 2 is 3.0 kg. No frictional force acts on block 1 in either Case A or Case B. However, a kinectic frictional force of 5.8 N does act on block 2 in both cases and opposes the motion. For both Case A and CAse B determine (a) the megnitude of the forces with whcihthe blocks push against each other and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks.
The diagram below is a top-down view of two children pulling a 11.6-kg sled along the snow. The first child exerts a force of F1 = 10 N at an angle ?1 = 45° counterclockwise from the positive x direction. The second child exerts a force of F2 = 6 N at an angle ?2 = 30° clockwise from the positive x direction. (A) Find the magnitude (in N) and direction of the friction force acting on the sled if it moves with constant velocity. magnitude = ? direction (counterclockwise from the +x-axis) = ? (B) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the ground? (C) What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) of the sled if F1 is doubled and F2 is halved in magnitude?
It may appear at first glance that Newton's 2nd and 3rd laws are independent claims. This, however, is not true - Newton's 3rd law is simply a consequence of Newton's 2nd law. In this problem, you will prove Newton's 3rd law for the normal contact force between two objects, using only Newton's 2nd law. Consider two blocks with masses m₁ and m₂ in contact, with external forces F₁ and F2 applied, as shown in the figure. The free body diagram for each block is also given, with internal forces fa and f, as shown. F₁ F₁ fa fb ΣF = ΣF = m₁ m2 Submit F₂ Complete the equations of motion for the entire system, as well as blocks 1 and 2 individually. Note, the forces have a signed magnitude, where positive values correspond to the positive x-direction ΣF= = (m₁ + m₂) a = m₁ a = m₂ a Use the above equations to write fa in terms of only fr: fa = m₁ You have used 0 of 4 attempts m₂ F₂ Save Calculator
Two blocks are in contact on a frictionless horizontal surface. The blocks are accelerated by a single horizontal force applied to the block m1. Where F = 150.0N , m7= 18 kg, and m2= 12 kg. The contact force of block 1 on block 2 is F m1 m2 О 300 N O 60 N O 120 N O 90 N
Assume the three blocks (m1= 1.0 kg, m2 = 2.0 kg,, and m3 = 3.5 kg) portrayed in the figure below move on a frictionless surface and a force F = 48 N acts as shown on the 3.5 kg block. Three blocks of mass m1, m2, and m3 are placed on a horizontal surface. Block m1 is taller than m2 and touches its leftmost surface. Block m3 is some distance to the right of block m2. A cord, passing over block m2, connects blocks m1 and m3. A horizontal force vector F is applied to block m3 and directed rightward. Determine the tension in the cord connecting the 3.5 kg and the 1.0 kg blocks (in N). If the 2.0 kg block was now stacked on top of the 1.0 kg block? Assume that the 2.0 kg block sticks to and does not slide on the 1.0 kg block when the system is accelerated. (Enter the acceleration in m/s2 to the right and the tension in N.)
Dr. Miller is conducting an experiment. He has a stack of books on a table which is frictionless and flat. He applies a force F on the stack, and finds that it accelerates at 3.0 m/s². He then adds a book to the stack. This is a physics textbook that has a mass of 1.0 kg. He then applies the same force F on the stack and finds that now the stack accelerates at 2.0 m/s². What was the mass of the original stack of books? a) 1.0 kg Ob) 2.0 kg c) 3.0 kg O d) none of the above
In the figure here, block 1 of mass 2.2 kg and block 2 of mass 3.4 kg are connected by a string of negligible mass and are initially held in place. Block 2 is on a frictionless surface tilted at 0 = 23 °. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block 1 and the horizontal surface is 0.25. The pulley has negligible mass and friction. Once they are released, the blocks move. What then is the tension in the string? Number i Unit
