Chapter 5, Problem 5.19E
CP A 750.0-kg boulder is raised from a quarry 125 m deep by a long uniform chain having a mass of 575 kg. This chain is of uniform strength, but at any point it can support a maximum tension no greater than 2.50 times its weight without breaking. (a) What is the maximum acceleration the boulder can have and still get out of the quarry, and (b) how long does it take to he lifted out at maximum acceleration if it started from rest?

An 800 kg boulder is raised from a quarry 183 m deep by a long, uniform chain having a mass
of 560 kg. This chain is of uniform strength, but at any point it can support a maximum tension
no greater than 2.50 times its weight without breaking.
What is the maximum acceleration the boulder can have and still get out of the quarry?
Two masses are connected by a rigid link as shown in Fig. Q3. The masses are resting on
an inclined plane. The masses are then released. Considering the coefficient of kinetic
friction between the inclined plane and the masses A and B are 0.1 and 0.2 respectively.
3.
Compute by using Newton's second law
a) The acceleration of both masses.
b) The force in the rigid link and specify whether it is in tension or compression.

A 3.00 kg box that is several hundred meters above theearth’s surface is suspended from the end of a short vertical rope of negligiblemass. A time-dependent upward force is applied to the upper endof the rope and results in a tension in the rope of T1t2 = (36.0 N/s)t.The box is at rest at t = 0. The only forces on the box are the tension inthe rope and gravity. What is the maximum distance that the box descends below its initial position?

- If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object.
