Textbook Question
Chapter 2.1, Problem 1eT
Consider the following discussion between two students.
Student 1: “I think the free-body diagram for the block should have a force by Chris, a force by the rope, and a force by Pam.”
Student 2: “I don’t’ think the diagram should show a force by Pam. People can’t exert forces on blocks without touching them.”
With which student, if either, do you agree? Explain your reasoning.

To be clear: You must write the words "Newton's Second Law" and point to an example of it within your solution! Write out the second law using symbols, not numbers. Writing "net force = m a" does not qualify because that could be written for any object. The symbols and subscripts should clearly refer to specific forces in each diagram. Examples, good and bad, of what might qualify are shown below.
The following are three examples of Newton's second law written for an object called "E" (which is not in this question). Credit would be given for the first example but not for the second or third.
This is a good example: mE g−TEJ sinθ1+NER cosθ2=mE a
This is a bad example that is not specific enough: Σ FE=mE a
This is a bad example with unspecified numbers and without symbols: (1.7 kg) g−(3.8 N) sin(59∘)+(4.9 N)cos(34∘)=(1.7 kg) a
Once you have begun your solution with symbols in Newton's Second Law, you may begin to substitute numbers as needed.

1. Block 1 (3.5 kg) is resting on the surface of a table.
On a sheet of paper, draw the free body diagram for block 1 using the two-subscript notation from class. After completing the free body diagram, enter below each force and its x & y-components. (use g = 10 m/s2) Remember that the x-component is the "i" component and the y-component is the "j" component.
FORCES on BLOCK 1
Weight force on block 1 by Earth: 100 (two-subscript notation)
The Weight on block 1 by the Earth has the notation: W1E.
Value = ———i + ——- j N
Remember that W1E points down (negative y-value) with a magnitude of m1 * g.
Normal force on block 1 by Surface: (two-subscript notation)
Value = ——i +——- j N
What is the answer? Show your complete solution. Step-by-step with Free body diagram. Simplify your final answer without the use of calculator.
