Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 25 kg and the larger bottom crate has a m

ass of m2 = 91 kg. There is NO friction between the crate and the floor, but the coefficient of static friction between the two crates is µs = 0.79 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two crates is µk = 0.62. A massless rope is attached to the lower crate to pull it horizontally to the right (which should be considered the positive direction for this problem).1)The rope is pulled with a tension T = 234 N (which is small enough that the top crate will not slide). What is the acceleration of the small crate?2)In the previous situation, what is the magnitude of the frictional force the lower crate exerts on the upper crate?3)What is the maximum tension that the lower crate can be pulled at before the upper crate begins to slide?4)The tension is increased in the rope to 1187 N causing the boxes to accelerate faster and the top box to begin sliding. What is the acceleration of the upper crate?m/s25)As the upper crate slides, what is the acceleration of the lower crate?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the bigger crate be in touch with the ground which is friction less. In the first case both m₁ and m₂ will move with common acceleration because m₁ is not sliding over m₂.

1 ) Common acceleration a = force / total mass

= 234 / ( 25 +91 )

= 2.017 m s⁻².

2 ) Force on m₁ accelerating it , which is nothing but friction force on it by m₂

= mass x acceleration

= 25 x 2.017

= 50.425 N

The same force will be applied by m₁ on m₂ as friction force which will act in opposite direction.

3 ) Maximum friction force that is possible between m₁ and m₂

= μ_s m₁g

= .79 x 25 x 9.8

= 193.55 N

Acceleration of m₁

= 193 .55 / 25

= 7.742 m s⁻²

This is the common acceleration in case of maximum tension required

So tension in rope

= ( 25 +91 ) x 7.742

= 898 N

4 ) In case of upper crate sliding on m₂ , maximum friction force on m₁

=  μ_k m₁g

= .62 x 25 x 9.8

= 151.9 N

Acceleration of m₁

= 151.9 / 25

= 6.076 m s⁻².

You can think of the work-kinetic energy theorem as the second theory of motion, parallel to Newton's laws in describing how out
kiruha [24]

Answer:

a) 4 289.8 J

b) 4 289.8 J

c) 6 620.1 N

d) 411 186.3 m/s^2

e) 6 620.1 N

Explanation:

Hi:

a)

The kinetic energy of the bullet is given by the following formula:

K = (1/2) m * v^2

With

    m = 16.1 g = 1.61 x 10^-2 kg

     v = 730 m/s

K = 4 289.8 J

b)

the work-kinetic energy theorem states that the work done on a system is the same as the differnce in kinetic energy of the same. Since the initial state of the bullet was at zero velocity (it was at rest)  Ki = 0, therefore:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki  = 4 289.8 J

c)

The work done by a force is given by the line intergarl of the force along the trayectory of the system (in this case the bullet).

If we consider a constant force (and average net force) directed along the trayectory of the bullet, the work and the force will be realted by:

W = F * L

Where F is the net force and L is the length of the barrel, that is:

F = (4 289.8 J) / (64.8 cm) = (4 289.8 Nm) / (0.648 m) = 6620.1 N

d)

The acceleration can be found dividing the force by the mass:

a = F/m = (6620.1 N) /(16.1 g) = 411 186.3 m/s^2

e)

The force will have a magnitude equal to c) and direction along the barrel towards the exit
