Three blocks with masses, m1 = 1 kg, m2 = 2 kg, and m3 = 4.0 kg, are pulled to the right across a horizontal frictionless surface by a constant force, F = 48 N, that acts on the large block as shown in the figure. Two of the blocks, m1 and m3, are connected by an ideal rope while the smallest block, m2, is sitting directly in front of m1 as shown. Take right as the positive direction. Version One. (a) Find the acceleration of the system? m/s2 (b) Determine the magnitude of the tension in the rope between m1 and m3. N (c) What is the magnitude of the normal (contact) force between m1 and m2 ? N Version Two. What if block m2 was placed on top of block m1 instead of in front of it? (a) What would be the acceleration of the system and tension in the rope if m2 and m1 stuck together? a = m/s2 T = N (b) What if the blocks were made of ice so that m2 and m1 didn't stick together?

Two boxes are stacked atop one another as shown. The bottom one has mass 3 m and the top has mass 4 m. We want to pull the top one with some force such that they move together. Assume there is zero friction between the ground and bottom box. However, there is friction between the two boxes, with static coefficient μs = 3/5 and kinetic coefficient μK = 1/5. (a) Assume we are pulling the top box with the largest force possible while still allowing the two boxes to move together. Draw a free-body diagram for each. (b) Use Newton's laws to determine the largest possible acceleration the top box can have so that the two boxes move together. (c) What is the maximum force we can pull the top box with?

Consider the Atwood machine in Fig. 1, where two blocks, one resting on top of the other. The blocks are tied to an ideal pulley (massless) through the rope and the rope can slip through the pulley without friction. The coefficients of static and kinetic frictions between the blocks are μ, and there is no friction between the block and the ground. Someone pulled the pulley with a force F. a. What will the maximum acceleration of the system be if the top block does not slip? ( 3 points) b. Now, assume that slipping does occur between the blocks. Draw the free-body diagrams of two blocks and the pulley w. (4 points) c. Express the acceleration of each block in terms of F, m1, m2, μ, and g when there is slipping. (Hint: pulley is massless, so the sum of the tensions in the rope equals to F ) (3 points)
