Concept explainers
Inclined Ramp A box sitting on a horizontal surface is attached to a second box sitting on an inclined ramp by a rope that passes over an ideal pulley. The rope exerts a tension force on both weights along the direction of the rope, and the coefficient of friction between the surface and boxes is (see Problems 91 and 92). If the box on the right weighs 100 pounds and the angle of the ramp is , how much must the box on the left weigh for the system to be in static equilibrium? Round your answer to two decimal places.

The trolley position is measured from the center of the bridge rail (x = 0) is given by x(t) = 0.5t^3-6t^2+19.5t-14 : 0 <= t <= 3 min. The trolley moves from point A to B in the forward direction, B to C in the reverse direction and C to D again in the forward direction.
