T – w sin 30o = 0

T = w sin 30o

T = (5 kg)(9.8 m/s)2) sin 30o

T = (49)(0.5)

T = 24.5 Ngā Niutona

Fy = 0

N – w cos 30o = 0

N = w cos 30o

N = (49)(0.87)

N = 43 Niutona

(a) Free-body diagram for object 1 (b) Free-body diagram for object 2

Apply Newton’s first law to object 1 :

Fy = 0

T1 - w1 = 0

T1 =w1 = m1 g = (2 kg)(9.8 m/s2) = 19.6 N

Anga Te ture tuatahi a Newton to object 2 :

Fy = 0

T2 - w2 = 0

T2 =w2 = m2 g = (2 kg)(9.8 m/s2) = 19.6 N

T1 =T2 = 19.6 N.

(a) Free-body diagram for object wA (b) Free-body diagram for object wB

Apply Newton’s first law to object wA in vertical (y) direction :

Fy = 0 (no acceleration in vertical direction)

T – wA = 0

T = wA = 30 Niutona

Apply Newton’s first law to object wB in vertical (y) direction :

Fy = 0

N – wB whaimana 45o = 0

N = wB whaimana 45o = (40)(0.7) = 28 Ngā Newton

Apply Newton’s first law to object wB in horizontal (x) direction :

Fx = 0

Fk + wB hara 45o – T = 0

μs N + wB hara 45o – T = 0

μs (28) + (40)(0.7) – 30 = 0

μs (28) + 28 – 30 = 0

μs (28) = 30 – 28

μs (28) = 2

μs = 2/28

μs = 0.07

The coefficient of the maximum static friction between wB and inclined surface = 0.07.
