a 150 g hamster sitting on an 840 g wedge-shaped block. The block, in turn, rests on a spring scale.
a) If the hamster is able to grip the surface of the block so that he doesn't slide, then what is the reading on the spring scale?
b) For the situation as described in Part A, what is the magnitude of the force on the hamster by the block?
c) Suppose that, instead of the situation described in Part A, the block has a frictionless upper surface, so that the hamster will slide down. However, there is significant friction between the lower surface of the block and the surface of the spring scale (and between the scale and the floor), so that the block never slips on the scale. While the hamster is sliding down, what is the magnitude of the force on the hamster by the block?
d) For the situation described in Part C, what does the scale read as the hamster slides down?
Explain why as well please.

(Figure 1)shows a 250 g hamster sitting on an 750 g wedge-shaped
block. The block, in turn, rests on a spring scale. An extra-fine
lubricating oil having μs=μk=0 is sprayed on the top surface of the
block, causing the hamster to slide down. Friction between the
block and the scale is large enough that the block does
not slip on the scale.

A 200g hamster is sitting on a 800g wedge-shaped block. The block, in turn, rests on a spring scale.a) Initially, static friction is sufficient to keep the hamster from moving. In this case, the hamster and the block are effectively a single 1000g mass and the scaleshould read 9.8N. Show that this is the case by treating the hamster and the block as separate objects and analyzing forces.b) An extra fine lubricating oil having µs= µk= 0 is sprayed on...

A block of mass 20kg rests on a wedge (θ=30∘) as shown in the figure below. The two objects move to the right in such a way that the block doesn't slide up or down the wedge. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the wedge is 0.35. what is the minimum and maximum acceleration of the two objects?

A 14 kg block on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 5.7 kN/m. The block is pulled to the right so that the spring is stretched 15 cm beyond its relaxed length, and the block is then released from rest. The frictional force between the sliding block and the surface has a magnitude of 44 N. (a) What is the kinetic energy of the block when it has moved 3.0 cm from...

A small block (m1 = 4.0 kg) rests on an inclined plane (m2 = 12.0 kg, ? = 53.13?). The coeffi- cients of static and kinetic friction between the surfaces of the block and the ramp are, respectively, ?s = 0.333 and ?k = 0.200. A force F?P pushes horizontally on the inclined plane to the right, causing the system to accelerate. If the force F?P is too large, the small block will slide up the ramp, whereas, if the...
