Get started for freeBlock Ain Fig. 6-56 has mass , and block Bhas mass .The coefficient of kinetic friction between block B and the horizontal plane is .The inclined plane is frictionless and at angle . 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.
Ablock is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of magnitudeand a vertical force are then applied to the block (Fig. 6-17).The coefficients of friction for the block and surface are and . Determine the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the block if the magnitude of is (a), (b) , and (c) .
If you press an apple crate against a wall so hard that the crate cannot slide down the wall, what is the direction of (a) the static frictional forceon the crate from the wall and (b) the normal force on the crate from the wall? If you increase your push, what happens to (c), (d), and (e) ?
In Fig. 6-14, a block of massis held stationary on a ramp by the frictional force on it from the ramp. A force , directed up the ramp, is then applied to the block and gradually increased in magnitude from zero. During the increase, what happens to the direction and magnitude of the frictional force on the block?
