(a) A person stands a distance d = 0.575 m from the left end of a plank as shown in the figure. The plank is supported by three ropes. Find the tension in each rope (in N ). Assume the plank is uniform, with length L = 2.00 m and mass 25.5 kg, and the weight of the person is 675 N. (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.) |T→1| = N |T→2| = N |T→3| = N (b) What If?

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 ?
