Two blocks connected by a rope of negligible mass are being dragged by a horizontal force (Fig. P5. 43). Suppose $F=68.0 \mathrm{N}, m_{1}=12.0 \mathrm{kg}, m_{2}=18.0 \mathrm{kg},$ and the coefficient of kinetic friction between each block and the surface is 0.100 . (a) Draw a free-body diagram for each block. (b) Determine the tension $T$ and the magnitude of the acceleration of the system.
Two blocks connected by a rope lie on a horizontal surface. Block A has mass ma and block B has mass mg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each blocks and the surface is Mk. The blocks are pulled to the right at constant velocity by a horizontal force F a) Draw the free-body diagrams for the system and write the Newton's equations. b) In terms of MA, Ms, and Mr calculate the magnitude of the force F and c) In terms of MA, Me, and Mr calculate the magnitude of the tension in the rope connecting the blocks.
