The energy emitted by radiation by a blackbody of surface area 410m2 and temperature of 155β€’c


Block 1 of mass π‘š1 = 2 π‘˜g is placed on block 2 of mass π‘š2 = 3 π‘˜g which is then placed on a table. A string connecting block 2 to a hanging mass 𝑀 passes over a pulley attached to one end of the table, as shown in Fig. 1. The mass and friction of the pulley are negligible. The coefficients of friction between block 1 and block 2 are πœ‡1s = 0.2, πœ‡1k = 0.1 and between block 2 and the tabletop are πœ‡2s = 0.3, πœ‡2k = 0.15


(a) (Marks: 3) Draw the complete free body diagram of the system and determine the largest value of 𝑀 for which the blocks can remain at rest.

(b) (Marks: 4) Now suppose that 𝑀 = 2.5 π‘˜g which is large enough so that the hanging block descends and block 1 slips on block 2. Draw the complete free body diagram of the system and determine each of the followings.

i. The magnitude π‘Ž1of the acceleration of block 1.

ii. The magnitude π‘Ž2 of the acceleration of block 2.

Block 1 and block 2, with masses m1 = 5 kg and m2 = 2 kg, are connected by a system of

massless, inextensible ropes and massless pulleys as shown in Fig. 2.

glycerin’s weight (W), density (𝜌), specific weight (𝛾), and specific gravity (SG).

A wet socks clinging to the inside of a washing machine drum which is spinning at a speed of 4.7 m/s. The radius of the drum is 30 cm.

(a) As the drum slows down after the washing is done at an angular retardation of 3.25 rad/sec^2 Find the time taken and number of rotations before it stops.


The acceleration of a point is a= 20t m/s2. When t= 0, x= 40 m and v= - 10 m/s. What are the position and velocity at t= 3 s?

The position of a point is given as a function of time by x= 4t βˆ’ 6t + 2tβˆ’ 1 , where x and t are expressed in meters and seconds. Determine the position, the velocity, and the acceleration of the particle when t= 2 s.

The coefficient of static and kinetic frictions between a 3.0-kg box and a desk are 0.40 and 0.30, respectively. What is the net force on the box when a 14.3 N horizontal force is applied to the box?


A 19.8 kg block is dragged over a rough, hor izontal surface by a constant force of 174 N acting at an angle of 25.8Β° above the horizon tal . The block is displaced 63.9 m, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.123 .
