A pulley system with 3.0 kg and 2.0 kg masses is used as shown in the diagram below.

The total frictional force is 5.0 N.


®
F f = 5.0 N
3.0 kg

2.0 kg

What is the acceleration of the system?

Adrian and Irwin conducted the investigation shown below. A 10-kg mass was suspended by a string and
attached to a 5.0-kg block. The force of friction on the system was 40 N.

Mass = 5 kg

Friction = 40 N

Mass = 10 kg

What was the acceleration of the system shown?

Frictionless pulley, with negligible mass

Cord, with negligible mass

1.0 kg 1.0 kg

0.5 kg
