Two masses are connected by a massless string, passing over a massless, frictionless pulley as shown in the diagram. Mass m1 = 5 kg, and is released from rest at a height h = 4 m above the table. Mass m2 = 3 kg, and starts at rest on the table. Ignore friction and air resistance. Take the system to be the two masses and the earth. What is the potential energy of this system, in Joules? Next, you let...

Two masses M1 and M2 are connected by an inextensible flexible massless string. The mass rests on a table with frictional co-efficient 0.2. The string passes over a smooth fixed pulley as shown. Initially the string is slack The mass M2 is allowed to fall freely from rest. The string becomes taught when the mass M2 falls through 50 cm. The two masses subsequently move with common velocity. Determine how far mass M1 will travel on the table before coming...

A system comprises two objects, a massless string, a frictionless (but not massless) pulley and the Earth. The objects, 1 and 2, have masses of 0.111 and 0.316 kg, respectively, and hang from opposite ends of the string, which is draped over the pulley. The pulley has a radius of 0.100 m. Initially, you are holding Object 1 to keep the system from moving. Then you let go, allowing the objects to move a vertical distance of 1.00 m and...

Two blocks of masses of 2.00 kg and 4.00 kg are connected by a massless string going over a smooth, massless pulley. The table on which the smaller mass rest is frictionless. The other side of the 2.00 kg mass is connected to a spring of k=250 N/m and the far end of the spring is tied to a fixed point. The system is release from rest with the spring at its relaxed length. A.) what is the speed of...

Two masses, m1 and m2 hang over a frictionless pulley by means of a massless string. They are perfectly balanced when a flea of mass m3 is standing on m2. When the flea hops from one mass to the other, the system acquires an acceleration, a. What is the value of the flea's mass, m3 in terms of two masses, m1 and m2, and the acceleration, a? (a) what is m3 in terms of m1 and m2? (b) what is...

Two blocks are connected by a string that passes over a massless, frictionless pulley, as shown in the figure. Block A, with a mass mA = 2.00 kg, rests on a ramp measuring 3.0 m vertically and 4.0 m horizontally. Block B hangs vertically below the pulley. Note that you can solve this exercise entirely using forces and the constant-acceleration equations, but see if you can apply energy ideas instead. Use g = 10 m/s2. When the system is released...

Two masses are connected by a string that passes over a pulley. The mass m1 is 9.2 kg, and the mass m2 is 1.6 kg. When the masses are simultaneously released from rest, what is the magnitude of their acceleration (in m/s2)? Neglect any friction. [Note: if you need to enter a number in scientific notation, use 'e'. For example, 1200 = 1.2e3 and 0.0012 = 1.2e-3. Include several decimal places in your calculations and your answer to avoid rounding...

Two masses M1=2kg and M2 are attached by a massless cord over a solid pulley wheel of mass M=4kg, and radius R=5cm. Static Friction between the cord and the pulley makes the pulley rotate counter-clockwise when the system is released from rest, M1 accelerates with a magnitude of 3.92 m/s2 . a) Draw and label the forces acting on the two blocks, and the pulley. (6 points) b) Find the tension in the cord between the pulley and M1 (6...
