Solve using any method you would like, but show your work. Suppose we were considering the Atwood’s machine pictured at right. A block of mass M1 = 1.5 kg is on a surface with coefficient of friction µ = 0.10, which is tilted at an angle α = 30º. A second block of mass M2 = 3.5 kg is hanging vertically. The two blocks are connected via an ideal massless string that passes over a pulley of mass mp = 0.55 kg and radius rp= 7.5 cm which can be treated as a solid disk. At time t0 block 2 is released from rest and it begins to fall.
a. Determine the magnitude of the friction force. Show your work
b. Determine the speed of the blocks when block 2 hits the floor, 0.35 m below where it starts. Show your work
c. After block 2 hits the floor, how much farther will block 1 slide up the incline before coming to rest? Show your work (hint, once block 2 hits the floor the tension in the string goes to zero – will it have any effect anymore?)

At the equator, near the surface of the Earth, the magnetic field is approximately 50 ?? northward, and the electric field is about 100 N/C downward in fair weather. Find the magnitude and direction of gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces on an proton in this environment, assuming the proton has an instantaneous velocity of 5?106m/s directed to the west.

For the thermal radiation from an ideal blackbody radiator with a surface temperature of 2100 K, let Ic represent the intensity per unit wavelength according to the classical expression for the spectral radiancy and Ip represent the corresponding intensity per unit wavelength according to the Planck expression. What is the ratio Ic/Ip for a wavelength of (a) 400 nm (at the blue end of the visible spectrum) and (b) 210 μm (in the far infrared)? (c) Does the classical expression agree with the Planck expression in the shorter wavelength range or the longer wavelength range?

In the figure, block 2 of mass 2.90 kg oscillates on the end of a spring in SHM with a period of 26.00 ms. The position of the block is given by x = (0.700 cm) cos(?t + ?/2). Block 1 of mass 5.80 kg slides toward block 2 with a velocity of magnitude 8.70 m/s, directed along the spring's length. The two blocks undergo a completely inelastic collision at time t = 6.50 ms. (The duration of the collision is much less than the period of motion.) What is the amplitude of the SHM after the collision?

Two 1.9 kg balls are attached to the ends of a thin rod of negligible mass, 62 cm in length. The rod is free to rotate in a vertical plane about a horizontal axis through its center. With the rod initially horizontal as shown, a 0.42 kg wad of wet putty drops onto one of the balls with a speed of 3.2 m/sec and sticks to it.

2)

rad/sec
3)
What is the ratio of the kinetic energy of the entire system just after the collision to just before the collision? (KEafter/KEbefore)
4)
Through what angle will the system rotate until it momentarily stops?

Two long, straight wires are perpendicular to the plane of the paper and at a distance 0.2 m from each other, as shown in the figure. The wires carry currents of I1 = 2.6 A and I2 = 5 A in the direction indicated (out of the page). Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field (in µT) at a point A midway between the wires. You need to indicate the direction with a positive or a negative value for the magnetic field. Keep in mind that a vector is positive if directed to the right and negative if directed to the left on the x axis and it is positive if directed up and negative if directed down on the y axis. Your answer should be a number with two decimal places, do not include the unit.
