Block A, with mass mA, is initially at rest on a horizontal floor. Block B, with mass mB, is initially at rest on the horizontal

top surface of A. The coefficient of static friction between the two blocks is μs. Block A is pulled with a horizontal force. It begins to slide out from under B if the force is greater than:
(A) mA*g
(B) mB*g
(C) μs*mA*g
(D) μs*mB*g
(E) μs(mA +mB)g

Answer:

(E) μs(mA +mB)g

Explanation:

We can apply for mB:

∑ Fx = mB*a   (→)

⇒  Ffriction = mB*a   ⇒  a = Ffriction / mB = μs*N / mB

⇒ a = μs*(mB*g) / mB  ⇒   a = μs*g    (acceleration of the system)

Now, for mA we have

∑ Fx = mA*a   (→)

F - Ffriction = mA*a      ⇒  F = mA*a + Ffriction  

⇒     F = mA*(μs*g) + μs*(mB*g)   ⇒   F = μs*g*(mA + mB)

We must know that the friction acts only between the two blocks

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as F_2 and the Tension in fence post as F_1, then

\sum F = 24(9.8)

F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)

We apply summatory of moments then

F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2

376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)

F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}

F_2 =132 N
