Momentum is conserved!
The Law of Conservation of Momentum: “In the
absence of an external force (gravity, friction), the
total momentum before the collision is equal to the
total momentum after the collision.”

Acceleration in m/s2
Using the rectangular coordinate system we have components
along axes as,
ΣFx = max
ΣFy = may
ΣFz = maz
F1
By Newton’s Second law of motion we have the resultant
force must be equal to the vector ‘m a’ .
Thus the given force must be equivalent to the vector ma.
D’Alembert’s Principle.mp4
If the inertia force vector is added to the forces acting on the
particle we obtain a system of forces whose resultant is zero.

Problem set 7.7
11.Two weights P and Q are connected by the
arrangement shown in Fig.5, neglecting friction and the
inertia of the pulleys and cord, find the acceleration a
of the weight Q. Assume that P=178N and Q= 133.5N.
(Ans. a = 2.415 m/s2)
Fig.5
12.Two blocks of weights P and Q are connected by a
flexible but inextensible cord and supported as
shown in Fig.6. If the coefficient of friction between
the block P and the horizontal surface is µ and all
other friction is negligible, find (a) the acceleration
of the system and (b) the tensile force S in the cord.
The following numerical data are given: P= 53.4N;
Q=26.7N; µ=1/3. (Ans. a=1.074 m/s2; S=23.72N)

13.Two blocks A and B slide under the action of gravity slide
down the inclined plane CD that makes with the horizontal
the angle α=30 0 (Fig.7). If the weights of the blocks are Wa
=44.5N and Wb= 89N and the coefficients of friction
between them and the inclined plane are µa= 0.15 and µb=
0.30, find the pressure P existing between the blocks during
the motion. (Ans. P=3.872N)

14.Neglecting friction and the inertia of the two pulleys
in Fig.8 find the acceleration a of the weight Q,
assuming that P=Q. (Ans. a= 2g/5)

15.Find the tension S in the string during motion of the
system shown in Fig.9 if W1=890 N; W2=445N.
The system is in a vertical plane, and the coefficient
of friction between the inclined plane and the block
W1 is µ=0.2.Assume the pulleys to be without mass.
