Two blocks are connected by a massless string over a pulley, as shown at right. Block A has a mass of 20 kg, and Block B has mass m. The coefficient of static friction between Block A and the horizontal surface is μs = 0.30 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between Block A and the surface is μk = 0.20. The mass m of block B can be selected to be any value between 0 kg and 40 kg. The value of m is chosen, and the system is released from rest. This is repeated for many different values of m. 6) On the axes provided, graph the friction force Ff acting on block A vs. the mass m of block B. Note the value of important points on the graph such as discontinuities, maxima, and minima. Show your work.

13.22 Two identical blocks are released from rest. Neglecting the mass of the pulleys and the effect of friction, determine (a) the velocity of block B after it has moved 2 m, (b) the tension in the cable. 13.23 Two identical blocks are released from rest. Neglecting the mass of the pulleys and knowing that the coefficients of static and kinetic friction are μs = 0.30 and μk = 0.20, determine (a) the velocity of block B after it has moved 2 m, (b) the tension in the cable.

I. Block A has a mass of 12 kg and block B has a mass of 8 kg. You push on block A with a 100.0 N force. For parts (a) & (b), assume no friction. (a) What are the accelerations of the blocks? (b) Now the force is turned to the left, and the push becomes a pull. What are the accelerations of the blocks? (c) Now assume a coefficient of kinetic friction of μ = 0.100. What are the block accelerations in parts (a) and (b) in this case?
