Three blocks with masses, m1 = 1 kg, m2 = 2 kg, and m3 = 4.0 kg, are pulled to the right across a horizontal frictionless surface by a constant force, F = 48 N, that acts on the large block as shown in the figure. Two of the blocks, m1 and m3, are connected by an ideal rope while the smallest block, m2, is sitting directly in front of m1 as shown. Take right as the positive direction. Version One. (a) Find the acceleration of the system? m/s2 (b) Determine the magnitude of the tension in the rope between m1 and m3. N (c) What is the magnitude of the normal (contact) force between m1 and m2 ? N Version Two. What if block m2 was placed on top of block m1 instead of in front of it? (a) What would be the acceleration of the system and tension in the rope if m2 and m1 stuck together? a = m/s2 T = N (b) What if the blocks were made of ice so that m2 and m1 didn't stick together? At what rate would each block accelerate? a1 = m/s2 a2 = m/s2 a3 = m/s2 a3 = What would be the tension in the rope?

A spring with a spring constant of 500 N/m is used to propel a 0.44−kg mass up an inclined plane. The spring is compressed 30 cm from its equilibrium position and launches the mass from rest across a horizontal surface and onto the plane. The plane has a length l = 2 m and is inclined at 32∘. Both the plane and the horizontal surface have a coefficient of kinetic friction with the mass of 0.35 . When the spring is compressed, the mass is at distance d = 1.4 m from the bottom of the plane. (a) What is the speed of the mass as it reaches the bottom of the plane? (b) What is the speed of the mass as it reaches the top of the plane? (c) What is the total work done by friction from the beginning to the end of the mass's motion?

In the figure a 56 kg rock climber is in a lie-back climb along a fissure, with hands pulling on one side of the fissure and feet pressed against the opposite side. The fissure has width w = 0.10 m, and the center of mass of the climber is a horizontal distance d = 0.40 m from the fissure. The coefficient of static friction between hands and rock is μ1 = 0.40, and between boots and rock it is μ2 = 1.30. The climber adjusts the vertical distance h between hands and feet until the (identical) pull by the hands and push by the feet is the least that keeps him from slipping down the fissure. (He is on the verge of sliding.) (a) What is the least horizontal pull by the hands and push by the feet that will keep the climber stable? (b) What is the value of h? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
