A large flat block of mass 7 m rests on a level, smooth tabletop (µk ≈ 0). On top of it is a much smaller block of mass m, with

a coefficient of static friction between the two blocks of µs. If the small block is pulled horizontally with constant force F, we want both blocks to slide together across the table without slipping on each other.
What is the largest acceleration that the system can be given in terms of µs and g?
1. F − µs g/ 8
2. F /8 m
3. µs g /7
4. µs g
5. 7 µs g /8
6. 8 µs g

Answer:

3. µs g /7

Explanation:

The largest Force appear when the maximal friction Force is required.

Second Newton law for the small block:

F_friction=u_s*N=u_s*(mg)

F-F_friction=ma

F-u_s*(mg)=ma

Second Newton law for the Big Block:

F_friction=7ma

u_s*(mg)=7ma

a=u_s*g/7

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The answer is 0.8 m

Explanation:

According the attached diagram, if we take the momentum in the point 0:

\frac{m_{D}*5.1 }{2} =m_{J} *X

Where

mD = mass of Diane = 64.2 kg

mJ = mass of Jack = 93.6 kg

Replacing:

X=\frac{\frac{64.2*5.1}{2} }{93.6} =1.75m

\frac{L}{2} -X=Y=\frac{5.1}{2} -1.75\\Y=0.8m

A force is applied to a block sliding along a surface (Figure 2). The magnitude of the force is 15 N, and the horizontal compone
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Fy = 14.3 [N]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must know that the force is a vector and has magnitude and direction, therefore it can be decomposed into the force in the X & y components:

When we have the components on the horizontal and vertical axes we must use the Pythagorean theorem.

F = \sqrt{F_{x}^{2} +F_{y}^{2}  }

where:

F = 15 [N]

Fx = horizontal component = 4.5 [N]

Fy = vertical component [N]

15=\sqrt{4.5^{2}+F_{y}^{2}}\\ 15^{2}= (\sqrt{4.5^{2}+F_{y}^{2}})^{2} \\225 = 4.5^{2}+F_{y} ^{2}\\  F_{y}^{2} =225 -4.5^{2}\\ F_{y}^{2}=204.75\\F_{y}=\sqrt{204.75}\\  F_{y}=14.3 [N]

Can kintic friction affect mechanical energy
Nesterboy [21]
Yes. Kinetic energy is a form of mechanical energy and friction will turn that kinetic energy into heat.
