Step 1
Determine the negligible mass: The problem states that one of the particles has negligible mass, which means its mass can be ignored in calculations. Let's assume that particle is M2. Show more…

A block of mass m1 = 2.30 kg is connected to a second block of mass m2 = 1.70 kg , as shown in the figure. This system starts with m2 moving downward and m1 moving to the right with a speed of 1.3 m/s . They move through a distance d = 0.410 m , at which point m2 hits the floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between m1 and the horizontal surface is μk = 0.639. What speed do the masses have just before m2 lands?

Two blocks, of masses m1=2 kg and m2 = 1kg, respectively, are connected by a string of negligible mass. Block 2 is pushed by force of magnitude F=20 N and directed at an angle of theta = 35 below the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between each block and the horizontal surface is mu= 0.2. Calculate the kinetic energy for the system of m1 and m2 after each block moves a distance of d = 2m
