Chain-Horizontal Pull

Classical Mechanics Level pending

A pile of chains is lying on a rough surface with coefficient of friction 0.5 , 0.5, and a constant force of 40 N \SI{40}{\newton} pulls on one end of the chains, as shown. To the nearest integer, find the velocity v v ( ( in m / s ) \si[per-mode=symbol]{\meter\per\second}) with which the chain gets pulled at the instant when 4 m \SI{4}{\meter} of its length is lying on the surface.

Details and Assumptions:

  • The initial length of the chain lying on the surface is 2 m . \SI{2}{\meter}.
  • Acceleration due to gravity is 10 m / s 2 . \SI[per-mode=symbol]{10}{\meter\per\second\squared}.
  • The mass of the chain is 2 kg / m . \SI[per-mode=symbol]{2}{\kilo\gram\per\meter}.


The answer is 3.
