Two boxes, each with mass 20 kg, are stacked one on top of the other. Alex lifts the boxes at a constant speed, pushing upward on the bottom of the lower box.
a) How much force must Alex apply to lift the two boxes?
b) How much force does the bottom box exert on the top box?
c) How much force does the top box exert on the bottom box?
d) How much force does the bottom box exert on Alex?
here,
mass of each box , m = 20 kg
a)
the force must Alex apply to lift the two boxes , Fa = 2 * m * g
Fa = 2 * 20 * 9.81 N = 392.4 N
b)
the force does the bottom box exert on the top box , Fb = m * g = 20 * 9.81 = 196.2 N
c)
the force does the top box exert on the bottom box, Fc = 196.2 N downwards
d)
the force does the bottom box exert on Alex , F = 2 mg downwards
F = 392.4 N downwards

= 8.6 N Alex Is asked to move two boxes of books contact with each other and resting on a frictionless floor. He decldes to move them at the same time pushing on box A with a horizontal pushing force F Here box A has a mass m 7.0 kg. The contact force between the two boxes F. and N denotes the normal force. = 14.1 kg and box B has a mass ma ma the acceleration (in m/s2) of...
The UPS guy is delivering two rectangular boxes to the 4th floor. The boxes are stacked vertically in the elevator. The one on the bottom has a mass of 5.00 kg and the one on the top has a mass of 2.00 kg. The elevator, the UPS guy, and both boxes are accelerating upward at 2.50 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the normal force between the two boxes? For the physical representation (part 2a), draw and label an appropriate...
You are lowering two boxes, one on top of the other, down the ramp shown in the figure (Figure 1) by pulling on a rope parallel to the surface of the ramp. Both boxes move together at a constant speed of 18.0 cm/s . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ramp and the lower box is 0.490, and the coefficient of static friction between the two boxes is 0.786. What force do you need to exert to accomplish this?...
You are lowering two boxes, one on top of the other, down a ramp by pulling on a rope. Both boxes move together at a constant speed of 15 cm/s. The coefficient ofkinetic friction between the ramp and the lower box is .400, and the coefficient of static friction between the boxes is .800.What is the force you need to apply to accomplish this?What is the magnitude and direction of the total force from the 50kg mass acting on the...
14) Three identical 5 kg crates are stacked one on top of the other. You want to accelerate them as much as possible by pushing on the lower crate, but the forces of statie friction between the surfaces of the crates max out at 24 N. What is the maximum acceleration you can achieve before the upper crates start to slide? Answer: Not yet correct, tries 2/25 15) What's the maximum amount of force you can apply to the lower...
A set of eight boxes, 10.0 kg each, are stacked on top of a table, as shown in the figure below. (a) Draw a FBD of the top-most box and find the normal force exerted on it by the box below. (b) Draw a FBD of the 2nd box from the top, including all three (!) forces acting on it. Find the normal force acting on this box by the box below it. (c) Do you see a pattern now?...
Two Boxes (with masses 2kg and 7kg) are stacked on top of each
other and connected through a pulley system as shown. The
coefficients of friction between the boxes ar
=0.5 and
=0.3. Assume the floor is frictionless
A. apply newton's second law to free body diagrams, write out
the equation.
B. find an equation for the magnitude of
where the boxes are just on the verge of sliding over each other.
Call that magnitude
Two blocks, stacked one on top of the other, can move without friction on the horizontal surface shown in the figure.(Figure 1) The surface between the two blocks is rough, however, with a coefficient of static friction equal to 0.45. a. If a horizontal force F is applied to the 5.0-kg bottom block, what is the maximum value F can have before the 2.0-kg top block begins to slip? b. If the mass of the top block is increased, does...
2 Main Question Consider two stacked boxes, A and B, as shown to the right. Box A has a mass of 8.0 kg, and box B has a mass of 12.0 kg. Box B is dragged to the right by a force F. The coefficient of kinetic friction be- tween the floor and box B is 0.50, and the coefficient What is the largest A can be for box A to not slip off the top? What will the acceleration...
A 22.7-kg box is being pushed from the bottom to the top of a frictionless ramp. When the box is pushed at a constant velocity, the nonconservative pushing force does 58.0 J of work. How much work is done by the pushing force when the box starts from rest at the bottom and reaches the top of the same ramp with a speed of 1.50 m/s?
