A Box (M = 20 Kg)is Sitting on a Horizontal

Question 51

Multiple Choice

A box (m = 20 kg) is sitting on a horizontal surface.It is connected to a massless hook by a light string passing over a massless pulley wheel.The coefficients of friction between the box and the surface are 0.50 (static) and 0.30 (kinetic) .On top of m is a second box M of mass 20 kg.The coefficients of friction between the boxes m and M are 0.80 (static) and 0.60 (kinetic) .How much weight needs to be added to the hook until the box just begins to move.
