    How Do You Calculate the Coefficient of Kinetic Friction on an Inclined Plane?

    Homework Statement Blocks 1 and 2 of masses m1 and m2, respectively, are connected by a light string. These blocks are further connected to a block of mass M by another light string that passes over a pulley of negligible mass and friction. Blocks 1 and 2 move with a constant velocity v down...

    Calculating Tension in Vines: A 5.0kg Monkey at Rest on Vines A and B

    Okay, I got an assignment from my teacher that I'm having trouble starting. A 5.0-kilogram monkey hangs initially at rest from two vines, A and B. Each of the vines has a length of 10 meters and negligible mass. Vine A is 30 degrees above the horizon in quadrant II, and Vine B is 60 degrees...
