Explanation / Answer

5.30

Taking downward motion of mB as "positive," the net motive force on the system is

F = weight of B less weight component of A less friction under A

F = [mB - mA*(sin + µ*cos)]*g

(a) Plugging in mA, mB, µ and :

F = [2.7kg - 2.7kg*(sin30 + 0.12*cos30)] * 9.81m/s² = 10.49 N

and the total mass

M = 2.7 x 2 = 5.4 kg, so the system acceleration

a = F / M = 1.9 m/s²

(b) From above, we'd need

0 = mB - mA*(sin + µ*cos)

mB/mA = sin + µ*cos

µ = (mB/mA - sin) / cos

Pluggin in mB, mA and ,

µ = [(2.7/2.7) - sin30)] / cos30 = 0.58 minimum
