The force on the rope is tension, which is equal to mg-ma But this same tension is spinning the wheel: angularacceleration=Tension/I a/R=Tension/I aI=R(mg-ma) solve for a, then you have it. check my thinking.

a = [(mB-mA)/(mB+mA)]*g = (3/4)g You can derive it by writing free-body motion equations for each mass, and eliminating the cord tension force, T. mA*a = T - mA*g mB*a = mB*g -T (mB + mA)*a = (mB - mA)*g

physics
A man is sitting in a bosun's chair that dangles from a massless, frictionless pulley and back down to the mans's hand. The combined mass of man and chair is 100 kg. With what force magnitude (N) must the man pull on the rope if he is to rise with a constant velocity...

Physics
a) The magnitude of the acceleration is V^2/R and it is directed along the rope (i.e. vertical), perpendicular to the direction of motion. b) If the rope tension is T, Newton's Second Law tells you that F = T - Mg = Ma = M V^2/R Solve for T T = M*(g + V*2/R) R is the rope ...

1. Fnet=ma=Fs Fnet=ma=usFn Fnet=ma=usmg mass canceles a=usg 2. not a very good visual description, cant figure out what you mean. draw pictures. use a free body diagram

physics
if it is moving at constant velocity (zero acceleration), then the force is equal to its weight,mg Now up a 30 degree slope, without friction. netforceup=ma mg-forcedownplane=ma mg-mgSin30=ma solve for a.

physics
well, mg is downward, so tension must be sin30=mg/tension solve for tension.

physics
from the FBDs wouldnt u get for M: Fy = N-WM=Ma Fx=T=Ma for m: Fy= T-Wm=ma Fx= T-W=ma then solve for a in M of Fx and sub a into m of Fx to get T?
