Physics

Solve using any method you would like, but show your work.Suppose we were considering the Atwood’s machine pictured at right.A block of mass M1 = 1.5 kg is on a surface with coefficient offriction µ = 0.10, which is tilted at an angle α = 30º. A secondblock of mass M2 = 3.5 kg is hanging vertically. The two blocks areconnected via an ideal massless string that passes over a pulley ofmass mp = 0.55 kg and radius rp= 7.5 cm which can be treated as asolid disk. At time t0 block 2 is released from rest and it beginsto fall.

a. Determine the magnitude of the friction force. Show yourwork

b. Determine the speed of the blocks when block 2 hits thefloor, 0.35 m below where it starts. Show your work

c. After block 2 hits the floor, how much farther will block 1slide up the incline before coming to rest? Show your work (hint,once block 2 hits the floor the tension in the string goes to zero– will it have any effect anymore?)
