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.

Problem X.4.3) Two bricks are pushed across a table with constant acceleration a as shown below. Brick A has twice the mass of brick B. The hand pushes horizontally, and there is no friction between the bricks and the table. (a) Compare the net force on A to that on B. How do you arrive at your conclusion? (b) Draw separate free-body diagrams for A and B. Make sure the label for each force indicates the types of force, the object on which the force is exerted, and the object exerting the force. (c) Is the magnitude of the force exerted by A on B greater than, less than, or equal to the force exerted by B on A? (d) Identify any third law pairs appearing in your two free-body diagrams. Is your answer to (c) consistent with these? (e) If the mass of brick B is m, determine the magnitude of all the forces in your free-body diagrams.

A box is on a rough surface that is inclined at an angle of 30.0∘ to the horizontal. A mass, m1 = 0.270 kg, is attached to a hanging mass of m2 = 105 g over an ideal pulley. a. Draw two free-body diagrams, one for each mass, showing all forces acting on them and chosen direction of motion. b. What is the value of μ that allows the block to slide down the incline at constant speed? Blank 1 c. The incline is then greased to remove the friction and the masses released again from rest. Find the tension in the string, in Newtons, Blank 2 and the acceleration of the box, in m/s2. Blank 3 d. How long, in seconds, does it take the box to slide a distance of 1.40 m along the incline? Blank 4 For this problem, SHOW ALL WORK including a free-body diagram of forces on each mass shown in the drawing below. The direction of accelerations should be clearly indicated on the sketch. Show all equations used before entering numbers. This problem should be well-structured. DO NOT ENTER UNITS WITH ANSWERS.
