Two crates, one with mass 5.4 kg and the other with mass 8.2 kg, connected by a light rope. The coefficient of kinetic friction

between each crate and the surface is 0.43.The crates are pulled to the right at a constant velocity of 2.9 cm/s by a horizontal force. Determine the ratio of the magnitude of the applied horizontal force to the magnitude of the tension in the rope connecting the blocks. Use 9.80 meters per second squared for acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

R= 2.5 :ratio of the magnitude of the applied horizontal force to the magnitude of the tension in the rope connecting the blocks

Explanation:

We apply Newton's second law:

∑F=m*a

velocity  is constant ,then , a=0

Nomenclature

W: weight

m: mass

N : normal force

Ff: Friction force

μk: coefficient of kinetic friction

T: tension  force in the rope

F: applied horizontal force

g: acceleration due to gravity.

Force Calculation

W₁=m₁*g=5.4 kg *9.8m/s²=52.92 N

W₂=m₂*g=8.2 kg *9.8m/s²= 80.36N

∑Fy=0  

N₁-W₁=0 , N₁=W₁ = 52.92 N

N₂-W₂=0, N₂=W₂=80.36N

Ff₁= μk* N₁=0.4*52.92 N = 21.16N

Ff₂= μk* N₂=0.4*80.36N = 32.14N

Look at the attached graphic

Free-Body diagram m₁=5.4 kg

∑Fx=0

T- Ff₁=0 , T= Ff₁     ,    T= 21.16N

Free-Body diagram m₂=8.2 kg

∑Fx=0

F-T- Ff₂=0 , F=T+Ff₂= 21.16N+32.14N=53.3N

Ratio of the magnitude of the applied horizontal force to the magnitude of the tension in the rope connecting the blocks (R)

R= F/T= 53.3N/21.16N = 2.5

Water vapor enters the atmosphere through
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Heat from the Sun causes water to evaporate from the surface of lakes and oceans. This turns the liquid water into water vapor in the atmosphere. Plants, too, help water get into the atmosphere through a process called transpiration! ... Water can also get into the atmosphere from snow and ice.

Most water vapor enters the atmosphere via evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation occurs when a single water molecule on a liquid water surface gains enough kinetic energy (often by solar radiation) to break the bond which holds the molecules together. Really Hopes this helps!
