Chapter 2.3, Problem 2aT

If the motion of the blocks is the same as in section I, how does the net force on the string compare to the net force on the rope?

Chapter 2.3, Problem 2aT, If the motion of the blocks is the same as in section I, how does the net force on the string
1. Determine whether the net force on each of the objects is greater than, less than, or equal to the net force on the object in section I. Explain.

  • block A
  • block B
  • the system composed of the blocks and the connecting rope or string

2. Compare the horizontal components of the following pairs of forces:

  • the forces on the string by block A and the rope by block A. Explain.
  • the forces on the string by block B and the rope by block B. Explain.

1 2 In the diagram above, block 1 is stacked on top of block 2. The blocks are at rest on a flat plane. The mass of each block is known. To which system could we apply Newton's laws in order to find the magnitude of the contact force between the blocks? Mark all systems that are useful for this purpose. The "block 1 system" is useful for finding the contact force between blocks 1 and 2. The "block 2 system" is useful for finding the contact force between blocks 1 and 2. Submit The "blocks 1 and 2 system" is useful for finding the contact force between blocks 1 and 2. You have used 0 of 2 attempts Save E Calculator
1. Apply Newton's second law to find the formula for the acceleration of the system. Ignore friction and the masses of the pulley and cord. Express your answer in terms of the variables mAmB, and appropriate constants.   2. Apply Newton's second law to find the formula for the tension in the cord. Ignore friction and the masses of the pulley and cord.
