The system shown, consisting of a 20-kg collar A and a 10-kg counterweight B, is at rest
Question:
The system shown, consisting of a 20-kg collar A and a 10-kg counterweight B, is at rest when a constant 500-N force is applied to collar A.(a) Determine the velocity of A just before it hits the support at C.(b) Solve part a assuming that the counterweight B is replaced by a 98.1-N downward force. Ignore friction and the mass of thepulleys.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
