A 2.50 m -long, 550 g rope pulls a 14.0 kg block of ice across a horizontal, frictionless surface. The block accelerates at 2.40 m/s2 . How much force pulls forward on (a) the ice, (b) the rope?

Part A

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Part B

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Solutions

Expert Solution

mass of the rope mr = 550*10^-3 kg

mass of the ice mi = 14 kg

acceleration of the block a = 2.40 m/sec

(i)

pulling force on ice F = mi*a

                                 = 14kg*2.40m/s

                                 = 33.6 N

(ii)

pulling force on thread F- mia = mra

                                   F = (mi+mr)a

                                       = (14+0.55)2.40

= 34.92 N

Starting with a speed of 2.50 m/s, a 2.00 kg block slides across a rough horizontal surface until it collides with a spring. The spring compresses a distance of 6.00cm as the block comes momentarily to rest. The total distance traveled by the block from its starting position to the position where it comes to rest is 0.800m. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.100, what is the spring constant of the spring?

A person is pulling a 40 kg block of ice across an icy surface at a 25 degree angle. If the person is pulling with a force of 42 N, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block of ice? you may ignore drag, but not friction. Us=.1 and Uk=.03 I got this wrong on the homework and my teacher said that the normal forces does not equal mg here and that the tension is "pulling up"

A man pulls a crate of mass 61.0 kg across a level floor. He pulls with a force of 180.0 N at an angle of 29.0° above the horizontal. When the crate is moving, the frictional force between the floor and the crate has a magnitude of 122.0 N. If the crate starts from rest, how fast will it be moving after the man has pulled it a distance of 2.50 m?

A 3 kg ball is attached to a tree branch by a 2.0 m long rope. It is released from rest when the string is parallel to the ground. Just at it swings to its lowest point, it collides elastically head-on with a 2 kg ball of the same dimension, but going in the opposite direction. The 3 kg ball rebounds at a speed of 13 m/s after the collision. Find the speed of the 2 kg ball before the...
