Two crates connected by a rope lie on a horizontal surface (Figure 1). Crate A has mass mA and crate B has mass mB. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each crate and the surface is μk. The crates are pulled to the right at constant velocity by a horizontal force F. In terms of mA, mB, and μk, calculate the magnitude of the force F. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables mA, mB, μk, and acceleration due to gravity g. In terms of mA, mB, and μk, calculate the tension in the rope connecting the blocks. Include the free-body diagram or diagrams you used to determine each answer.

- An object of mass m has these three forces acting on it (there is no normal force, "no surface"). F1 = 1 N, F2 = 10 N, and F3 = 4 N. When answering the questions below, assume the x-direction is to the right, and the y-direction is straight upwards. What is the magnitude of the net force, in newtons? What is the angle θ, in degrees, of the net force, measured from the +x-axis? Enter an angle between -180° and 180°. What is the magnitude, |a| of the acceleration, in meters per square second, if the block has a mass of 8.9 kg?arrow_forwardAs you will see in a later chapter, forces are vector quantities, and the total force on an object is the vector sum of all forces acting on it. In the figure below, a force F, of magnitude 6.70 units acts on a crate at the origin in a direction 0 = 26.0° above the positive x-axis. A second force F, of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the crate in the direction of the positive y-axis.

The upper pulley is attached to the ceiling by a chain, and the lower pulley is attached to the weight by another chain. The weight is lifted at constant speed. Assume that the rope, pulleys, and chains all have negligible weights. In terms of w, find the tension in the lower chain. In terms of w, find the tension in upper chain. In terms of w, find the magnitude of the force F if the weight is lifted at constant speed.arrow_forward
- Krystal's cat, Charlie, had an unfortunate experience this morning. Charlie climbed the curtain and was afraid to come back down. Krystal heard the meowing and came to help him down. She decided this was a good opportunity to calculate the tension force Charlie exerted on the curtains. She placed him on a scale and used his mass to calculate the tension force on the curtains. If the cat caused 37N of tension on the curtain, what is Charlie's mass?arrow_forwardAs you will see in a later chapter, forces are vector quantities, and the total force on an object is the vector sum of all forces acting on it. In the figure below, a force ₁ of magnitude 6.80 units acts on a box at the origin in a direction 0 = 29.0° above the positive x-axis. A second force F2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the box in the direction of the positive y-axis.
