Figure shows a box of mass m2=1.0kgon a frictionless plane inclined at angle =30. It is connected by a cord of negligible mass to a box of massm1=3.0kgon a horizontal frictionless surface. The pulley is frictionless and mass less.(a) If the magnitude of horizontal forceFis 2.3 N, what is the tension in the connecting cord? (b) What is the largest value the magnitude ofFmay have without the cord becoming slack?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Tension in the connecting chord is 3.1N

(b) The largest value of the force F acting onm1 without the cord becoming slack is 15N

Step by step solution

01

Given information

It is given that,

The mass of the box on the frictionless horizontal surface isM1=3kg

The mass of the box on the frictionless inclined surface is M2=1kg

The force applied on the massM1 is 2.3 N

The angle made by M2with the horizontal is30

02

Determining the concept

The problem is based on Newton鈥檚 second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction of the force acting on it. Thus, using the free body diagramthe tension in the connecting chord and the maximum force acting without the cord becoming slack can be found.

Formulae are as follow:

Newton鈥檚 second law is,

Fnet=Ma

where,Fnet is the net force, Mis mass and a is an acceleration.

03

(a) Determining the tension in the connecting chord

FBD for the system is,

Applying Newton鈥檚 second law,

F+T=M1a (i)

M2gsin-T=M2a (ii)

Add equations (i) and (ii),

F+M2gsin=M1+M2aa=F+M2gsinM1+M2a=2.3+9.8sin304a=1.8m/s2

Putting this value of a in equation (i),

T=31.8-2.3T=3.1N

Hence, the tension in the connecting chord is 3.1N.

04

(b) Determining the largest value of the force F acting on M1 without the cord becoming slack

If maximum force acts on the box, the tension in the string becomes zero, so equations 1 and 2 become,

a=gsinF=M1aF=M1gsinF=39.8sin30F=14.7~15N

Hence, the largest value of the force F acting onM1 without the cord becoming slack is 15 N

The Zacchini family was renowned for their human-cannonball act in which a family member was shot from a cannon using either elastic bands or compressed air. In one version of the act, Emanuel Zacchini was shot over three Ferris wheels to land in a net at the same height as the open end of the cannon and at a range of 69 m. He was propelled inside the barrel for 5.2 m and launched at an angle of 53. If his mass was 85 kg and he underwent constant acceleration inside the barrel, what was the magnitude of the force propelling him? (Hint:Treat the launch as though it were along a ramp at53Neglect air drag.)
