Stacked blocks and pulley Mass Ma lies on top of mass Mb, as shown. Assume Mb > Ma. The two blocks are pulled from rest by a massless rope passing over a pulley. The pulley is accelerated at rate A. Block Mb slides on the table without friction, but there is a constant friction force f between Ma and Mb due to their relative motion. Find the tension in the rope.
Four people are attempting to move a stage platform across the floor. If they exert the horizontal forces shown, determine (a) the equivalent force-couple system at O and (b) the points on the x- and y-axes through which the line of action of the single resultant force R passes. Assume F₁-71 lb, F2-61 lb, F3-39 lb. F4-51 lb, a-74 in., b-60 in., and 0 = 47° F₁ ΤΑ B. F₂ F₁ Answers: (a) The force-couple system at O: R= (i it i j) lb Mo- i k lb-in. (b) The line of action of the single resultant R: On the x-axis x- On the y-axis y i 10 8 in. in.
