Suppose the mass of each brick is 2.5 kg, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the bricksand the table is 0.2, and the bricks are moving at a constant speed of 0.50 m/s.
Determine the magnitude of each of the forces that you drew on your free-body diagrams in part B. (Use the approximation
Would your answers change if the bricks were moving half as fast? If so, how? If not, why not?

Two masses B and C are connected with a string passing over a friction less pully, assuming the coefficient of friction between the table and block is μ=0.4 , and the acceleration of gravity g=9.81 m/s2. Solve the following questions (show all the steps of your calculations):
A. Draw the free body diagram of the two masses.B. Find an expression of the acceleration of the two masses in terms of ?? and ??.C. Determine the tension in the rope in terms of ?? and ??.D. If ??= ʎ kg, ?? = (ʎ-5) kg, determine the acceleration of two blocks and the tension in the rope.(ʎ= the final two numbers of your ID +10, and, gravitational acceleration, g = 9.81 m/s2).
Consider the system shown in the figure (Figure 1). Block A has weight w, and block B has weight wg. Once block B
is set into downward motion, it descends at a constant speed. Assume that the mass and friction of the pulley are
negligible.
Part A
Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction u between block A and the table top.
Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables wa (double-u subscript A), WB, and g (the acceleration due to gravity).

Block A in (Figure 1) is heavier than block B and is sliding down the incline. All surfaces
have friction. The rope is massless, and the massless pulley turns on frictionless bearings.
The rope and the pulley are among the interacting objects, but you'll have to decide if
they're part of the system.
