Hi! The following 2 questions I have for homework for this week, and I'm stuck on the steps I need to approach this types of questions.
If someone could provide a brief analysis or suggestions as to how to go about problems involving tensions, that would be very helpful.
1) If M=1.1kg, what is the tension in the string 1?
2) Two objects are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley. Draw a Free Body Diagram of both objects. If the inclide is frictionless and if m1= 2kg, m2=6kg and angle theta=55 degrees, find:
(a) the accelerations of the objects
(b) the tension in the string
(c) the speed of each object 2 sec after being released from rest.
ANY feedback about analysing tension questions such as the ones mentioned above would terrific. Physics is really not my strong point. In a free body diagram in #2, what forces are acting on the objects being pullied? Gravity? Normal?
