Q.

In the system shown in Figure The masses of the bodies are known to be m1and m2 , the coefficient of friction between the body m1 and the horizontal plane is equal to μ, and a pulley of mass m is assumed to be a uniform disc. The thread does not slip over the pulley. At the moment t=0 the body m2 starts descending. Assuming the mass of the thread and the friction in the axle of the pulley to be negligible, find the work performed by the friction forces acting on the body m1 over the first t second after the beginning of motion.

Detailed Solution

Let a is the acceleration of the blocks. Equation of motion of the blocks are

Question Image

T1-μN=m1a  1 m2g-T2=m2a (2)

and for the rotation of the pulley

T2R-T1R=1α=Ia/R (3)

where I=mR22

Solving above equations, we get

a=m2-μm1gm1+m2+m2

The distance travelled by the block in t second

s=12at2

Work done by the friction

W=fr×s=μN×12at2     =μm1g×12m2-μm1gm1+m2+m2t2     =μm1g2t2m2-μm12m1+2m2+m
