In Fig. 6-37, a slab of mass m1=40kgrests on a frictionless floor, and a block of mas m2=10kgrests on top of the slab. Between block and slab, the coefficient of static friction is 0.60, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40. A horizontal force of magnitude 100Nbegins to pull directly on the block, as shown. In unit-vector notation, what are the resulting accelerations of (a) the block and (b) the slab?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The resulting accelerations of the block is-6.1m/s2i^

(b) The resulting accelerations of the slab is-0.98m/s2i^

Step by step solution

01

Given

m1=40kgm2=10kg

Coefficient of static friction between block and slab = 0.60,

Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40,

Horizontal force =100 N.

02

Determining the concept

Use the concept of friction and Newton's first law of motion. According to Newton鈥檚 first law, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Formula:

Fnet=ma

where, F is the net force, m is mass and a is an acceleration.

03

Determining the free body diagrams

The free-body diagrams for the slab and block are shown below:


F is the 100 N force applied to the block, FNsis the normal force of the floor on the slab,

FNbis the magnitude of the normal force between the slab and the block, f is the force of friction between the slab and the block, msis the mass of the slab, and mbis the mass of the block. For both objects, take the +x direction to the right and the +y direction to be up.

Applying Newton鈥檚 second law for the x and y axes for (first) the slab and (second) the block results in four equations:

-f=mxaxFNs-FNb-msg=0f-F=mbabFNb-mbg=0

From which, note that the maximum possible static friction magnitude would be,

sFNb=smbg=0,610kg9.8m/s2=59N

Check to see if the block slides on the slab. Assuming, it does not, then localid="1654235514304" as=ab(which we denote simply as a) and solve for localid="1654235535303" f

f=msFms+mb=40kg100N40kg+10kg=80N

Which is greater thanfs,max so that the block is sliding across the slab (their accelerations are different).

04

(a) Determining the resulting accelerations of the block

Using,f=kFNb,the above equations yield,

ab=kmbg-Fmb=0.4010kg9.8m/s2-100N10kg=-6.1m/s2

T negative sign means that the acceleration is leftward. That is, ab=-6.1m/s2i^

Hence, the resulting accelerations of the block is-6.1m/s2i^

05

(b) Determining the resulting accelerations of the slab

Also,

as=-kmbgms=-0.4010kg9.8m/s240kg=-0.98m/s2

As mentioned above, this means it accelerates to the left. That is,as=-0.98m/s2i^

Hence, the resulting accelerations of the slab is-0.98m/s2i^
