Problem 1:
Problem 2:
An object of mass m1 = 3.80-kg placed on a frictionless, horizontal
table is connected to a string that passes over a pulley and then is
fastened to a hanging object of mass m2 = 7.20-kg as shown in the
figure.

Problem5: Level Curves
A 1500 kg car moving on a flat,
horizontal road negotiates a
curve as shown. If the radius of
the curve is 35.0 m and the
coefficient of static friction
between the tires and dry
pavement is 0.523, find the
maximum speed the car can have
and still make the turn
successfully.
v rg
The force of static friction directed toward the
center of the curve keeps the car moving in a
circular path.

Problem 6: Banked Curves
A car moving at the designated
speed can negotiate the curve.
Such a ramp is usually banked,
which means that the roadway is
tilted toward the inside of the
curve. Suppose the designated
speed for the ramp is to be 13.4
m/s and the radius of the curve
is 35.0 m. At what angle should
the curve be banked?
