Question

A belt of negligible mass passes between cylinders A and B and is pulled to the right with a force P. Cylinders A and B weigh, respectively, 5 and 20 lb. The shaft of cylinder A is free to slide in a vertical slot and the coefficients of friction between the belt and each of the cylinders are µs = 0.50 and µk = 0.40. For P = 3.6 lb,
Determine:
(a) Whether slipping occurs between the belt and either cylinder,
(b) The angular acceleration of each cylinder.

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) whether slipping occurs between the belt and the cylinder i think is the answer dont hate if you get it wrong please and thank you.

Explanation:

i am just guessing otay.
