Two blocks of masses m1 and m2 are connected by a light cord that passes over a pulley of mass M, as shown. Block m2 slides on a frictionless horizontal surface. The blocks and pulley are initially at rest. When m1 is released, the blocks accelerate and the pulley rotates. The total angular momentum of the system of the two blocks and the pulley relative to the axis of rotation of the pulley is

  • the same at all times.

  • proportional to I1, the length of string from the pulley to m1,

  • proportional to I2, the length of string from the pulley to m2.

  • conserved because the Earth doesn't move.

  • proportional to the velocity of the blocks.

    Two blocks with masses m1 and m2 are connected by a massless string over a frictionless pulley. Block 1 sits on a frictionless horizontal surface and block 2 sits on a plane inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between block 2 and the incline is µk. The pulley, which is a uniform disk, has a mass mp and a radius R. When you release the blocks, both blocks slide without the string slipping on...

    Two blocks with different masses m1 and m2 and m1 is larger than m2. They are attached to either end of a light rope that passes over a light, frictionless pulley suspended from the ceiling. The mass are released from rest, and the more massive one starts to descend. After this block has descended 1.6 m, its speed is 2.2 ms-1. If the total mass is 4.1 kg, what is the mass of the heavier block m1 (unit is kg)?...
