You will use this problem for Questions 11 and 12.  Read carefully!  Free body diagrams will be graded in the written work. A block with a mass of 5 kg slides 6.0 m down a ramp (18° incline). There is an 8 N friction force acting on the block as it slides. (a) Draw a free body diagram of the block, and find the acceleration of the block down the ramp. (b) If the block starts from rest, how fast is it moving when it reaches the bottom of the ramp? For this question, enter the answer for part (a) – the acceleration of the block down the ramp.

You will use this problem for Questions 7 and 8.  Read carefully!  Free body diagrams will be graded in the written work. Mass 1 sits on a frictionless table, and mass 2 is attached to mass 1 by a string laid over a pulley as shown in the diagram. If a force of 10 N pulls on mass 1 as shown, (a) find the acceleration of the blocks and (b) find the tension in the string. For this question, enter the answer for part (a) – the acceleration of the blocks.
