Question

(89) Problem 8: Two blocks are tied together with a massless string that does not stretch and connected via a frictionless and massless pulley. Mass one, Mi, rests on a table top and is stationary. Denote the force for static friction as F and the tension in the string byT.

Explanation / Answer

A) on M1, Tension T will be rightward, so draw a rightward arrow for it.

Static friction Fs will be leftward, so draw leftward arrow for it. Normal will be upward, so draw an upward arrow for it. Weight M1g will be downward.

Ftotalx = T-Fs =0

Ftotaly= N-M1g =0

B) on M2, Tension T will be upward. Draw upward arrow for it. Weight M2g will be downward, draw a downward arrow for it.

Ftotalx = 0

Ftotaly = T-M2g = 0
