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.

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.

The crate shown is held against wedge B by a spring. The spring is 94% of its original uncompressed length l = 3 m and the spring constant is given as k = 1550 N/m. The coefficient of static friction at all contacting surface is μs = 0.1. The mass of the crate is m = 30 kg and the angle is θ = 15∘. Neglect the mass of the wedge. Assume the crate only moves in the y direction and that wedge A cannot move. Determine (1) The normal force exerted by the crate on the wedge (2) The smallest horizontal force P to move the crate upward
