Two boxes (Box A = 9.7 kg and Box B = 5.4 kg) are connected by acord running over a pulley. The coefficient of kinetic friction betweenbox A and the table is 0.18. We ignore the mass of the cord and pulleyand any friction in the pulley, which means we can assume that a forceapplied to one end of the cord will have the same magnitude at theother end. We wish to find the tension of the cord while accelerating (inN), assuming the cord doesn’t stretch. As box B moves down, box Amoves to the right. Hint: Solve for the acceleration of the system first.

A 3.00-kg box that is several hundred meters above the surface of the earthis suspended from the end of a short vertical rope of negligible mass. Atime-dependent upward force is applied to the upper end of the rope, andthis results in a tension in the rope of T(t) = (36.0 N/s)t. The box is atrest at t = 0.
