Tension in String given Coefficient of Friction of Horizontal Plane Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Tension in String = (1+Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane)*(Mass of Left Body*Mass of Right Body)/(Mass of Left Body+Mass of Right Body)*[g]
T_st = (1+μ_hor)*(m₁*m₂)/(m₁+m₂)*[g]
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Variables Used

Tension in String - (Measured in Newton) - Tension in String is the force exerted by the string on the hanging object, opposing its weight and keeping it suspended in the air.
Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane - Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane is the ratio of the frictional force to the normal force between two surfaces in a horizontal plane motion.
Mass of Left Body - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Left Body is the amount of matter in an object hanging from a string, which affects the motion of the system.
Mass of Right Body - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Right Body is the amount of matter in an object hanging from a string, which affects its motion and oscillations.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane: 0.438 --> No Conversion Required
Mass of Left Body: 29 Kilogram --> 29 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Mass of Right Body: 13.52 Kilogram --> 13.52 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_st = (1+μ_hor)*(m₁*m₂)/(m₁+m₂)*[g] --> (1+0.438)*(29*13.52)/(29+13.52)*[g]

Evaluating ... ...

T_st = 130.035219553528

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

130.035219553528 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

130.035219553528 ≈ 130.0352 Newton <-- Tension in String

Tension in String given Coefficient of Friction of Horizontal Plane

Go Tension in String = (1+Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane)*(Mass of Left Body*Mass of Right Body)/(Mass of Left Body+Mass of Right Body)*[g]

Acceleration of System with Bodies One Hanging Free and Other Lying on Rough Horizontal Plane

Go Acceleration of Body = (Mass of Left Body-Coefficient of Friction for Hanging String*Mass of Right Body)/(Mass of Left Body+Mass of Right Body)*[g]

Tension in String given Coefficient of Friction of Horizontal Plane Formula

Tension in String = (1+Coefficient of Friction for Horizontal Plane)*(Mass of Left Body*Mass of Right Body)/(Mass of Left Body+Mass of Right Body)*[g]
T_st = (1+μ_hor)*(m₁*m₂)/(m₁+m₂)*[g]

What are the two Coefficients of Friction?

There is essentially two kinds of coefficients; static and kinetic. The static coefficient of friction is the coefficient of friction that applies to objects that are motionless. The kinetic or sliding coefficient of friction is the coefficient of friction that applies to objects that are in motion.
