Block a of Mass 5

question 34

Multiple Choice

Block A of mass 5.0 kg and block X are attached to a rope which passes over a pulley, as shown in the figure. An 80-N force P is applied horizontally to block A, keeping it in contact with a rough vertical face. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the wall and block A are μs = 0.40 and μk = 0.30. The pulley is light and frictionless. The mass of block X is adjusted until block A moves upward with an acceleration of 1.6 m/s2. What is the mass of block X?
