The system is released from rest with the cable taut. The friction coefficients µs = 0.25 and µk = 0.20,
calculate the acceleration of each body and the tension T in the cable. Neglect the small mass and friction
of the pulleys.
Solution:

First need to check if blocks move. . . Assume the blocks are at rest and calculated the needed friction
force. Summing the vertical forces on mass B,

ΣFy = mB aB,y
0 = 2T − mB g
 
N
T = mB g/2 = 20 kg 9.81 /2 = 98.1 N
kg

Summing the tangential forces on mass A,

ΣFt = MA aA,t
0 = T + FF − mA g sin (30◦ )
FF = −T + mA g sin (30◦ ) = 196.2 N

Summing the forces in the normal direction,

ΣFn = MA aA,n
0 = N − mA g cos (30◦ )
N = mA g cos (30◦ ) = 510 N
FF,max = µs N = 127 N < 196.2 N ⇐ The block will slide down the hill

Now set up the force balance equations again, but this time there is acceleration and FF = µk N . First for
block A,

*0
0 = ΣFn − mA aa,n = N − mA g cos (30◦ ) − mA aa,n
N = mA g cos (30◦ ) = 510 N
0 = ΣFt − mA aa,t = T + FF − mA g sin (30◦ ) − mA aa,t
T = −FF + mA g sin (30◦ ) + mA aa,t (1)

Now for block B,

0 = ΣFy − mB aB,y = 2T − mB g − mB aB,y


mB
T = (g + aB,y ) (2)

Setting equation (1) equal to equation (2) and letting aA,t = −2aB,y ,
mB
−FF + mA g sin (30◦ ) + mA (−2aB,y ) = (g + aB,y )

Solving for aB,y ,
mB g mB aB,y
mA g sin (30◦ ) − − FF = + 2mA aB,y

With the blocks initially at rest, the force P is increased slowly from zero to 60 lb. Plot the accelerations of
both masses as functions of P .
Solution:

Summing the forces on block A,

0 = ΣF − mA aA = FF,AB − mA aA ⇐ Horizontal (3)


0 = NAB − mA g ⇐ Vertical (4)

So,

NAB = mA g (5)

and the maximum static friction force is

FF,AB,max = µs,AB mA g = 16 lb (6)

The maximum acceleration of block A without slip is


FF,AB,max 16 lb ft
aA,max,no slip = = lbm
= 6.44 2 (7)
mA 80 lbm/32.2 slug s

The kinetic friction force between the blocks is

FF,AB,Slip = µk,AB mA g = 12 lb (8)

Summing the forces on block B,

0 = σF − mB aB = P − FF,AB − FF,B − mB aB ⇐ Horizontal (9)


0 = NB − NAB − mB g ⇐ Vertical (10)

So,

NB = NAB + mB g = mA g + mB g (11)

and the maximum static friction force is,

FF,B,max = µs,B (mA + mB ) g = 27 lb (12)


The kinetic friction force between the block B and the ground is,
FF,B,Slip = µk,B (mA + mB ) g = 18 lb (13)
(14)
As P is increased there will be no motion until P reaches 27 lb at which point block B will begin to slide
along the lower surface.
FF,AB = mA aA (15)
FF,AB = P − FF,B − mB aB (16)
Setting these two equations equal to each other,
mA aA = P − FF,B − mB aB (17)
There is slip between block B and the ground; therfore, FF,B = µk,AB (mA + mB ) g = 18 lb. Assuming
there is no slip between the blocks then aA = aB .
aB (mA + mB ) = P − µk,AB (mA + mB ) g (18)
P − µk,AB (mA + mB ) g
aB = (19)
mA + mB
27 lb − 18 lb
aB = lbm

aB = (21)

aB = 1.61 2 ⇐ Just after P reaches 27 lb. (22)
s
This acceleration is small enough so that there is no slip between the blocks. As P increases the acceleration
of both blocks will be given by:
P − 18 lb
a= (23)
5.59 slug
until a = 6.44 sft2 , at which point block A will start to slip. The value of P which will result in slip is
p = aA,max,no slip (5.59 slug) + 18 lb = 54.0 lb (24)
For P > 54.0 lb the friction force between the blocks will be 12 lb. The acceleration of block A will be
12 lb ft
aA = lbm
= 4.83 2 . (25)
80 lbm/32.2 slug s
The acceleration of block B will be
P − 12 lb − 18 lb P − 30 lb
aB = lbm
= (26)
100 lbm/32.2 slug 3.11slug
So,

0,
 P < 27 lb
P −18 lb
aA = 5.59 slug 27 lb < P < 54.0 lb

4.83 sft2 P > 54.0

and,

0,
 P < 27 lb
P −18 lb
aB = 5.59 slug 27 lb < P < 54.0 lb
 P −30 lb

3.11slug P > 54.0
