Get started for freeIn Fig. 6-27, a box of Cheerios and a box of Wheatiesare accelerated across a horizontal surface by a horizontal force applied to the Cheerios box. The magnitude of the frictional force on the Cheerios box is , and the magnitude of the frictional force on the Wheaties box is . If the magnitude of is , what is the magnitude of the force on the Wheaties box from the Cheerios box?
A certain string can withstand a maximum tension of 40 Nwithout breaking. A child ties a 0.37 kgstone to one end and, holding the other end, whirls the stone in a vertical circle of radius 0.91 M, slowly increasing the speed until the string breaks. (a) Where is the stone on its path when the string breaks? (b) What is the speed of the stone as the string breaks?
When the three blocks in Fig. 6-29 are released from rest, they accelerate with a magnitude of . Block 1 has mass M, block 2 has , and block 3 has . What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between block 2 and the table?
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) ?
Two blocks, of weights 3.6 Nand 7.2 N, are connectedby a massless string and slide down ainclined plane. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the lighter block and the plane is 0.10, and the coefficient between the heavier block and the plane is 0.20. Assuming that the lighter block leads, find (a) the magnitude of the acceleration of the blocks and (b) the tension in the taut string.
