Exercise 12.9
The two blocks shown are originally at rest. Neglecting the masses of the pulleys
and the effort of friction in the pulleys and between the blocks and the inclines,
determine (a) the acceleration of each block, (b) the tension in the cable.

Exercise 12.13
Block A has a mass of 25 kg and block B a mass of 15 kg. The coefficients of
friction between all surfaces of contact are μs= 0.20 and μk=0.15. Knowing θ = 25
degrees and the magnitude of the force P applied to block A is 250 N, determine
(a) the acceleration of block A, (b) the tension in the cord.

Exercise 12.28
The coefficients of friction between blocks A and C and the horizontal surfaces are μs=
0.24 and μk=0.20. Knowing that mA = 5 kg, mB = 10 kg, and mC = 10 kg, determine (a)
the tension in the cord, (b) the acceleration of each block

Exercise 12.36
A single wire ACB passes through a ring at C attached to a sphere which revolves at a
constant speed v in the horizontal circle shown. Knowing that the tension is the same in
both portions of the wire, determine the speed v.

Exercise 12.38
Two wires AC and BC are tied at C to a sphere which revolves at a constant speed v in the
horizontal circle shown. Determine the range of the values of v for which wires remain taut.
