Two teams engage in a tug of war. Each team has 9 members. The first team's members have an average mass of 67 kg per person and exert an average force of 1355 N per person horizontally. The second team's members have an average mass of 71 kg per person and exert an average force of 1375 N per person horizontally. Hint: Be sure to read the textbook's section on problem solving strategies for Newton's Laws. What is magnitude of the acceleration of the two teams? m/s2 What is the tension in the section of rope between the teams? N

Two children, Raffil and John, sitting on sleds tied together with a rope, are being dragged across a frozen river by their lonely Siberian husky Rex attached with the hamess and rope as shown in the figure. The husky is pulling happily with a net horizontal force of 112 N from its harness. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sleds and the ice is 0.08, the combined mass of Raffi and his sled is 42.0 kg, and the combined mass of John and his sled is 51.0 kg. Assume all forces are horizontal, and the two ropes and the harness are of negligible mass, and all ropes are tight. (i) What is the acceleration of Rex? (ii) What is the tension T in the rope connecting the two sleds? (iii) What is the tension in the rope connecting the sled of John and Rex? If this question cannot be answered, why? (iv) Will the husky be able to pull the sleds with the same magnitude of force from its harness if the frozen river starts to melt resulting in a slippery surface? Explain the reason of your answer.

A freight train consists of two 7.00×105 kg engines and 50 cars with average masses of 4.50×105 kg. (a) What force (in N) must each engine exert backward on the track to accelerate the train at a rate of 2.00×10−2 m/s2 if the force of friction is 7.50×105 N, assuming the engines exert identical forces? This is not a large frictional force for such a massive system. Rolling friction for trains is small, and consequently trains are very energy-efficient transportation systems. (Enter the magnitude.) N (b) What is the magnitude of the force (in N) in the coupling between the 37 th and 38 th cars (this is the force each exerts on the other), assuming all cars have the same mass and that friction is evenly distributed among all of the cars and engines? (Assume both engines are at the front of the train.) N

A thin, 52.0 cm long metal bar with mass 750 g rests on, but is not attached to, two metallic supports in a uniform magnetic field with a magnitude of 0.440 T, as shown in ( Figure 1). A battery and a resistor of resistance 29.0 Ω are connected in series to the supports. For related problem-solving tips and strategies, you may want to view a Video Tutor Solution of Magnetic force on a straight conductor. Figure 1 of 1 Part A What is the largest voltage the battery can have without breaking the circuit at the supports? Express your answer in volts. Submit Request Answer Part B The battery voltage has the maximum value calculated in part (a). If the resistor suddenly gets partially short-circuited, decreasing its resistance to 2.00 Ω, find the initial acceleration of the bar. Express your answer in meters per second squared. a = m/s2A thin, 52.0 cm long metal bar with mass 750 g rests on, but is not attached to, two metallic supports in a uniform magnetic field with a magnitude of 0.440 T, as shown in ( Figure 1).
