A sled is tied to a tree on a frictionless, snow-covered hill, as shown in the figure. The maximum tension the string can sustain is 40.0 N. If the sled weighs 77.0 N, (a) find the magnitude of the tension force FT→ exerted by the string on the sled, and (b) find the magnitude of the normal force n→ exerted by the hill on the sled. (c) Will the string snap?

A 705 N bear is standing on a metal plank supported by the cable shown in the figure. At the end of the plank hangs a basket weighing 80 N. Assume the plank is uniform, weighs 200 N, is 5.00 m long, and θ = 60.0∘. (a) When the bear is at x = 1.15 m, find the tension in the cable supporting the plank and the components of the force exerted by the wall on the left end of the plank. (Enter the magnitudes of your answers in N.) T = N Fx = N Fy = N (b) If the cable can withstand a maximum tension of 800 N , what is the maximum distance (in m ) the bear can walk before the cable breaks? (Measure this distance from the wall.) m

A block of mass m1 = 1.95 kg and a block of mass m2 = 6.10 kg are connected by a massless string over a pulley in the shape of a solid disk having radius R = 0.250 m and mass M = 10.0 kg. The fixed, wedge-shaped ramp makes an angle of θ = 30.0∘ as shown in the figure. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.360 for both blocks. (i) (a) Draw force diagrams of both blocks and of the pulley. No file chosen (b) Determine the acceleration of the two blocks. (Enter the magnitude of the acceleration.) m/s2 (c) Determine the tensions in the string on both sides of the pulley. left of the pulley N right of the pulley N

A block, whose mass is 0.620 kg, is attached to a spring with a force constant of 128 N/m. The block rests upon a frictionless, horizontal surface (shown in the figure below). The block is pulled to the right a distance A = 0.120 m from its equilibrium position (the vertical dashed line) and held motionless. The block is then released from rest. (a) At the instant of release, what is the magnitude of the spring force (in N) acting upon the block? N (b) At that very instant, what is the magnitude of the block's acceleration (in m/s2 )? m/s2 (c) In what direction does the acceleration vector point at the instant of release? Away from the equilibrium position (i. e. , to the right in the figure). The direction is not defined (i.e., the acceleration is zero). Toward the equilibrium position (i.e., to the left in the figure). You cannot tell without more information.
