Two blocks connected by a light horizontal rope sit at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block A has mass 15.0 [kg], and block B has mass m. A constant horizontal force F = [60.0 N] is applied to block A. In the first 5.00 [s] after the force is applied, block A moves 18.0 [m] to the right.
d. Write Newton’s 2nd law for block A along the horizontal direction and solve for the force exerted by the rope on block A.
e. Write Newton’s 2nd law for block B along the horizontal direction and solve for its unknown mass m. (Hint: F on rope A = F on rope B)
Consider the figure shown in the following figure. You are lowering two boxes, one on top of the other, down a ramp by pulling on a rope parallel to the surface of the ramp. Both blocks move with constant velocity of 10.0 [m/s]. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ramp and the lower box is 0.555 and the coefficient of static friction between the two boxes is 0.750.1. Write Newton's 2nd law of motion along the x and y directions for both blocks considering their state of motion.2. What are the magnitude and direction of the firctional force on the upper box?3. Draw the free-body diagram of both blocks. Set the x-axis parallel to the ramp.
