4) Block B weighing 500 N rests on block A which
weighs 300 N. The dynamic coefficient of friction be-
tween contact surfaces is 0.4. At wall C there are
rollers whose friction we can neglect. What is the ac-

A tractor is now drafted in to move the blo ck. The weight of the tractor is equally distributed over all four wheels and it pulls on the blo ck via a rope with tension T. The back wheels have a diameter of 1.6m and the front wheelshave a diameter of 80cm. The tractor motor generates a torque of τ on each of its back wheels that have radii Rb and masses mb. The front wheels of the tractor are smaller than the back wheels and have radii Rf and masses mf. Both sets of wheels can b e treated as uniform solid disks with moment ofinertia I = 1/2mR2. The mass of the tractor body, without the wheels, is M. If the wheels don't slip, show that the tractor can accelerate the block with an acceleration of (see image)
The figure below shows a cylinder, which is rotating in clockwise direction. A lever is pushing onto the cylinder, thus exerting a braking torque. The lever itself is loaded by a force FE . a) Draw the free-body diagram of the lever, determine the direction of the kinetic friction force.
