Find Force Exerted on Blocks Sliding Down a Rough Incline
i think i have found the acceleration of the objects i got 1.6336 meter per second squared but i don't know how to find the force on the second object. I took the sum of the forces which included (m1)(gravity)(sin30)-friction on that object + (m2)(gravity)(sin30)- friction of that object) all...- koolbaseman

Find Force Exerted on Blocks Sliding Down a Rough Incline
Two blocks (m1 = 2.500 kg and m2 = 3.100 kg) slide down a rough 30.0 degree incline. µ1 = .2300 for the lighter block µ2 = .5100 for the heavier block a) Determine the acceleration of the pair. b) Calculate the...- koolbaseman

Calculating the Height of a Cliff Using Rocks
This problem doesn't have a diagram or a picture so: Suppose you land your spacecraft on a distant planet and disembark extremely close to the top-edge of a cliff. The planet's acceleration due to gravity is unknown and you want to know the height of the cliff. Utilizing your accurate...- koolbaseman
