Question

Two blocks are connected by a string that goes over an ideal pulley as shown in the figure. Block m1 has a mass of 3.77 kg and can slide over a rough plane inclined 29° to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block A and the plane is 0.665. Block B has a mass of 4.13 kg. What is the acceleration of the blocks?

Step 1

Step 1: Write down the equations of motion for each block: For block B: \(m_b g - T = m_b a\) For block A: \(T - m_1 g \sin(\alpha) - \mu_k m_1 g \cos(\alpha) = m_1 a\) Show more…
