    Lesson 2: Force and Motion

    Instruction: Show your complete and neat solution. Identify your final answer in the solution.

    1. A force of 20 N acts upon a body whose weight is 8 N. What is the mass of the body? What is its acceleration?
    Given: Solution: Fg
    a=
    F = 20 N W = mg W

    W=8N W (20 N)(9.8 m/s2 )


    m= a=
    g 8N
    M=?
    8N a = 24.5 m/s2
    a=? m=
    9.8 m/s 2
    m = 0.82 kg

    2. Two masses of 8 kg and 12 kg are tied to each end of a string passing over a massless and frictionless pulley. Find the
    resulting acceleration of each mass.
    Given: Solution: (12 kg − 8 kg)(9.8 m/s2 )
    a=
    m1 = 12 kg (m1g – T) + (T – m2g) = m1a + m2a (12 kg + 8 kg)

    m2 = 8 kg m1g – m2g = a (m1 + m2) (4 kg)(9.8 m/s 2 )


    a=
    20 kg
    a=? g (m1 - m2) = a (m1 + m2)
    a = 1.96 m/s2
    (m1 − m2 )g
    a=
    m1 + m2

    3. A 1000−kg mass elevator has an acceleration of 1. What is the tension in the supporting cable if the elevator is
    Given: a) ascending b) descending
    m = 1 000 kg ΣFy = ma ΣFy = ma
    2
    a = 1 m/s T – mg = ma mg – T = ma
    T = ma + mg -1 [-T = ma – mg] -1
    T = a (a + g) T = -ma + mg
    T = 1 000 kg (1 m/s2 + 9.8 m/s2) T = m (-a + g)
    T = 10 800 N T = 1 000 kg (-1 m/s2 + 9.8 m/s2)
    T = 8 800 N
    4. A 5 kg block resting on a frictionless inclined plane with an inclination angle of 20° is attached to another 5 kg block
    that hangs freely by a string passing over a massless, frictionless pulley. What is the resulting acceleration of the two
    blocks?
    Given: Solution: Fnet = W2 – Fg
    m1 = 5 kg Fg = m1 gsin θ Fnet = (m1 + m2) a
    m2 = 5 kg Fg = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s2) (sin20°) (m1 + m2) a = W2 – Fg
    θ = 20° W2 − Fg m2 𝑔 − m1 𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛θ
    W 2 = m 2g a= =
    a=? m1 + m2 m1 + m2
    Fn = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s2)
    m
    (5 kg) (9.8 ) − (5 kg) (9.8 m/s 2 ) (sin20°)
    Fn = 49 N 𝑎 = s2 = 3.22 m/s 2
    (5 kg) + (5 kg)

    5. A block weighing 60 N rests on a horizontal floor. a) What is the minimum force that will make the block move if the
    coefficient of static friction is 0.20? b) What is the minimum force that will keep the block moving at uniform speed once
    it starts moving if the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10?
    Given:
    Weight of the block = 60 N
    Coefficient of static force = 0.20
    Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10

    a) Minimum force required to move the block = μsN


    Minimum force required to move the block = (0.20) (60 N)
    Minimum force required to move the block = 12 N

    b) Minimum force that will keep the block moving at uniform speed = μkN
    Minimum force that will keep the block moving at uniform speed = (0.10) (60 N)
    Minimum force that will keep the block moving at uniform speed = 6 N

    6. A force of 150 N pushes a box. Starting from rest, the box achieves a velocity of 1.50 in 2.5 s. Find the coefficient of
    sliding friction between the box and the floor.
    Given: Solution: F 150 N
    m= =
    a 0.6 m/s2
    F = 150 N Fk = μk ; Fk = F & N = W = mg
    Vo = 0 m/s m = 250 kg
    F = μkmg
    Vf = 1.5 m/s μk = F/mg 150 𝑁
    μk =
    t = 2.5 s (250 𝑘𝑔)(9.8 𝑚/s 2 )
    m m
    g = 9.8 m/s2 Vf − Vo 1.5 s − 0 m s μk = 0.06
    a= =
    t 2.5 s
    μk = ?
    a = 0.6 m/s2
