6. Intro to Forces (Dynamics)

(II) One 3.2-kg paint bucket is hanging by a massless cord from another 3.2-kg paint bucket, also hanging by a massless cord, as shown in Fig. 4–41.

(b) If the two buckets are pulled upward with an acceleration of 1.45m/s² by the upper cord, calculate the tension in each cord.

(III) The double Atwood machine shown in Fig. 4–55 has frictionless, massless pulleys and cords. <IMAGE>

Determine (a) the acceleration of masses m_A,m_B ,and m_C.

(a) What minimum force F is needed to lift a piano (mass M) using the pulley apparatus shown in Fig. 4–64? <IMAGE>
