You (85 kg) are standing on the horizontal surface at the top of a cliff. The coefficient of static friction between your feet a

nd the ground is .5 and the kinetic coefficient is .4. You have a friend (100kg) that wants to accelerate down the side of the cliff. They set up massless and frictionless pulley and secure themselves with a massless string (physics students can do these sorts of things) that is then tied around your waist. The coefficient of static friction between your feet and the ground is .5 and the kinetic coefficient of friction is .4.

Answer:

 a = 7.6 m / s²

Explanation:

In this exercise we must use Newton's second law .  In general, it is asked to know if the system is in equilibrium or accelerated, suppose that the system is in equilibrium

Person on top of the cliff m = 85 kg

Y axis

          N - W = 0

          N = w₁

          N = m g

X axis

          T’ -fr = 0

          T’ = fr

the friction force has the formula

         fr = μ N

we subtitle

         T’ = μ m g

we calculate

        T ’= 0.5 85 9.8

        T’ = 416.5 N

This is the maximum value that the tension of the rope can have by remaining in static equilibrium.

Person on the cliff   M = 100 kg

        T -W = 0

        T = W = M g

        T = 100 9.8

        T = 980 N

we see that

         T> T ’

       

as the tension exceeds the maximum static friction force, in the system it is accelerated, so the friction coefficient decreases to   μ= 0.4

We medo the problem, but  with acceleration

Person on the cliff

          T ’-fr = m a

          a = (T '-  μ mg) / m

in this case, how the rope should maintain the tension of the diagram of the person hanging

         T ’= T = Mg

we substitute

         a = Mg / m - very g

         a = g (M / m - my)

let's calculate

        a = 9.8 (100/85 - 0.4)

        a = 7.6 m / s²

Your friend says that if Newton’s third law is correct, no object would ever start moving. Here is his argument: You pull a sled
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

You pull a sled exerting a 50 N force on it , sled also exerts a force on you . These forces are action and reaction force , as per third law of Newton . These two forces are equal and  opposite . But they do not act on the same object so they do not cancel each other . They act on different objects , one on the sledge and the other on you . Due to force on sledge , sledge moves in the direction of force or towards you . You will start moving in opposite direction if frictional force of ground is nil or less .

In just 0.30 s , you compress a spring (spring constant 5000 n/m ), which is initially at its equilibrium length, by 4.0 cm. par
Ierofanga [76]
The average power output is the ratio between the work done to compress the spring, W, and the time taken, t:
P= \frac{W}{t} (1)

The work done is equal to the elastic energy stored by the compressed spring:
W=U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where k=5000 N/m is the spring constant and x=4.0 cm=0.04 m is the compression of the spring. If we substitute the numbers, we find:
W= \frac{1}{2}(5000 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=4 J

And now we can use eq.(1) to calculate the average power output:
P= \frac{W}{t}= \frac{4 J}{0.30 s}  =13.3 W
