4.) A cart with mass m = 1:2 kg touches a block with mass M =
7:3 kg.
Both blocks sit on a horizontal surface; the wheel of the cart
eliminates
the friction with the surface; the coecient of kinetic friction
between
the block M and the surface is not known. The box and cart are
initially
at rest.
a) We exert a horizontal push P = 63:3N and move the
block-cart
system through the distance s = 0:87 m. The cart and box move at
the
speed 2.4 m/s at the end of the push. What is the work done by
us?
b) Find the forces acting on the cart and the work done by these
forces!
c) Find the forces acting on the block and the work done by these
forces!
