Chapter 6, Problem 79P
SSM Block A in Fig. 6-56 has mass mA = 4.0 kg, and block B has mass mB = 2.0 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the horizontal plane is µk = 0.50. The inclined plane is frictionless and at angle θ = 30°. The pulley serves only to change the direction of the cord connecting the blocks. The cord has negligible mass. Find (a) the tension in the cord and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks.

A man is pushing a box across an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 60
degrees away from the horizontal. The box has a mass of 20kg and is moving at a
constant speed. The force applied by the person has a magnitude of 250N and
the surface of the inclined plane is not frictionless.
m> 20 kg
Go°
How many degrees should the angle (x) of the inclined plane be if the values of the mass m are 3 kg <m <30 kg so that the 50 kg block on the inclined plane does not move upward and downward along the plane (static friction coefficient between the contact surfaces ıs 0.30)?
Sally wants to hang up some decorations on the side of her house, so she props up a ladder of length L = 3m against a wall at an angle of θ = 50° with respect to the horizontal. The ground is somewhat icy, where the coefficient of static friction between the ground and the ladder’s feet is µ = 0.55; while the wall of her house can be considered frictionless. If Sally has a mass of 60kg and the ladder has a mass of 80kg, what is the max distance that she can climb up the length of the ladder without it slipping? You may assume the ground is perfectly flat, and the wall is perpendicular to the ground.

- This is a book problem I was given to study but I'm confused on how to approach it: A mass m = 13 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =8.3 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 39° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.37. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 39° (thus on the incline it is parallel to the surface) and has a tension T =58 N. What is the work done by friction after the block has traveled a distance x=2.6m up the incline? The work done by gravity? I emailed my professor and he said to take the x=2.6m as the distance traveled along the ramp but I don't know what I am supposed to do with that.arrow_forwardWhen an object slides on a surface, it encounters a resistance force called friction. This force has a magnitude of uN, is the coefficient of kinetic friction and N is the magnitude of the normal force that the surface applies to the object. Suppose an object of mass 30 kg is released from the top of an inclined plane that is inclined 60° to the horizontal. Assume the gravitational force is constant, air resistance is negligible, and the coefficient of kinetic friction p = 0.2. Determine the equation of motion for the object as it slides down the plane. If the top surface of the plane is 8 m long, what is the velocity of the object when it reaches the bottom?

There is some friction present; the kinetic coefficient of friction is 6.00×10-2. Since you can't walk up the incline, you give the box a push that gives it an initial velocity; then the box slides up the incline, slowing down under the forces of friction and gravity.
