As shown in Figure 3(a), a wooden block B with mass mB = 2.4 kg on a rough inclined plane is connected to a massless spring ( k = 160 N/m ) by a massless cord passing over a pulley P of radius R = 0.25 m and mass Mp = 0.60 kg. The angle of the inclined plane is θ = 37∘ and the coefficients of static and kinetic frictions are μs = 0.35 and μk = 0.30 respectively. The frictional force at the axle of the pulley is negligible. The pulley can be regarded as a solid disk. (a) The system is at rest and in this case, block B is on the verge of sliding down. Figure 3(a) i. Indicate (with labeled arrows) the forces acting on the pulley and the block. ii. Calculate the tension in the string and the extension of the spring. (You can assume that the tensions in the cord on either side of the pulley P are the same for this part.) (b) As shown in Figure 3(b), another wooden block A of mass mA = 1.2 kg made of the same material as block B is released from rest. It slides down a distance l down the rough inclined plane and collides with block B. The two blocks stick together and move down the incline with a common velocity v = 0.80 m/s immediately after collision and the pulley rotates. The cord does not stretch and does not slip on the pulley. Figure 3(b) i. Determine the distance l. ii. Determine the acceleration of the two blocks at the moment they move down together and the pulley starts to rotate. iii. Determine how much further down the slope the two blocks move together after they collide before the two blocks come to a momentary rest.

The truck with a ladder plotted in Fig. 5 starts from rest (and accelerates to the left) with an acceleration of 7 m/s2. The ladder of mass m = 10 kg, which is the rigid body of interest in this problem, can be modeled as a uniform slender rod that is hinged at point A and supported at point B. As a consequence, the center of mass G of the ladder is located at the midpoint of the rod. Any friction in this problem is supposed to be small enough to be neglected. a) Determine the minimum linear acceleration amin of the truck such that the ladder loses contact at point B, i. e. the normal force NB at B vanishes, and starts to rotate about point A. Do so by determining the sum of the moments about point A, and verify that for the given acceleration of the truck, the ladder will in fact lose contact at point B. b) Determine the mass moment of inertia I¯ of the ladder associated with its center of mass G. c) Use the result found in Part b) and employ the concept of relative acceleration expressed in terms of a normal-tangential coordinate system to determine the initial angular acceleration vector α of the ladder. Figure 5: A truck with a ladder accelerating from rest to the left and measurements.

Between t = 0 and t = t0, a rocket moves straight upward with an acceleration given by a(t) = A − Bt1/2, where A and B are constants. (a) If x is in meters and t is in seconds, what are the units of A and B ? (b) If the rocket starts from rest, how does the velocity vary between t = 0 and t = t0 ? (c) If its initial position is zero, what is the rocket's position as a function of time during this same time interval?
