For Exercises 1 through 5:
a. Draw an interaction diagram.
b. Identify the "system" on your interaction diagram.
c. Draw a free-body diagram for each object in the system. Use dashed lines to connect members of an action/reaction pair.
1. A soccer ball and a bowling ball have a head-on collision at this instant. Rolling friction is negligible.
2. A weightlifter stands up at constant speed from a squatting position while holding a heavy barbell across his shoulders.
3. A steel cable with mass is lifting a girder. The girder is speeding up.
4. Block A in FIGURE EX7.4 is heavier than block B and is sliding down the incline. All surfaces have friction. The rope is massless, and the massless pulley turns on frictionless bearings. The rope and the pulley are among the interacting objects, but you'll have to decide if they're part of the system.

Fully label all vectors. b. While you are making the cart speed up, how does the size of the force you apply on the cart b. compare to the size of the force the cart exerts on you? Explain. c. While you are making the cart speed up, how does the size of the frictional force on the cart by the floor compare to the frictional force on you by the floor?arrow_forwardThree boxes in contact slide side-by-side on a smooth, friction-less, horizontal floor. Their masses are 5.0-kg, 3.0-kg, and 2.0-kg, with the 3.0-kg box in the center. A force of 50 N pushes on the 5.0-kg box, which pushes against the other two boxes. A.

He stops to rest at the middle of the rope. The rope will break if the tension in it exceeds 3.00 x 10⁴N, and our heros mass is 81.6 kg. a. if the angle that the rope makes with the cliff is 75°find the tension in the rope. b.

- Question 1 - A light block of mass m and a heavy block of mass M are attached to the ends of a rope. A student holds the heavier block and lets the lighter block hang below it, as shown in the figure. Then she lets go. Air resistance can be neglected. A. What is the tension in the rope while the blocks are being held? Explain. Marrow_forwardA 15.0 kg load of bricks hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionless pulley. A 28.0 kg counter weight is attached to the other end of the rope, as shown in the figure. You may model the rope as a massless string. The system is released from rest. A.
