61 SSM A block of mass m, = 4.0
kg is put on top of a block of mass
m, = 5.0 kg. To cause the top block
to slip on the bottom one while the
bottom one is held fixed, a horizon-
tal force of at least 12 N must be ap-
plied to the top block. The assembly Fig. 6-47 Problem 61.
of blocks is now placed on a hori-
zontal, frictionless table (Fig. 6-47). Find the magnitudes of (a) the
maximum horizontal force F that can be applied to the lower block 2.
so that the blocks will move together and (b) the resulting acceler-
ation of the blocks.

belt which is moving at 0.5 m/s. If the sand is assumed to fall
vertically onto the belt at A at the rate of 4 kg/s, determine
the belt tension Fg to the right of A.The belt is free to move
over the conveyor rollers and its tension to the left of A is

- 12: It is said that in ancient times a rich man with a bag of gold coins was stranded on the surface of a frozen lake.

The objects are uniform solid and thin hollow spheres, and solid and thin hollow cylinders that have same masses and radii. Rank the four objects from fastest (shortest time) down the inclined plane to the slowest. You might have learned that when dropped straight down, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of how heavy they are (neglecting air resistance). Is the same true for objects rolling down an inclined plane?
