In Figure, a force F of magnitude 12 N is applied to a FedEx box of mass
Question:
In Figure, a force F of magnitude 12 N is applied to a FedEx box of mass m2 = 1.0 kg. The force is directed up a plane tilted by θ = 37o. The box is connected by a cord to a UPS box of mass m1 = 3.0 kg on the floor. The floor, plane, and pulley are frictionless, and the masses of the pulley and cord are negligible. What is the tension in the cord?
Step by Step Answer:
We take x uphill for the m 10 kg box and xrightward f...View the full answer

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.
