2, Consider the acceleration of the cart when the applied force
is due to a 10-N iron weight attached to a string draped over The pulley changes only
a pulley. Will the cartaccelerate as before, at 10 m/s#? The tee Grection of the force
answer is no, because the mass being accelerated is the mass
of the cart plus the mass of the piece of iron that pulls it,
Both masses accelerate. The mass of the 10-N iron weight is
1 kg—so the total mass being accelerated (cart + iron) is 2 kg
‘Then,
Note this is half the acceleration due to gravity alone, 9. So
the acceleration of 2 kg produced by the weight of 1 kg is 9/2,

In each case, a rock is acted on by one or more forces. Draw an accurate vector diagram showing
all forces acting on the rock, and no other forces. Use a ruler, and do it in pencil so you can correct
mistakes. The first two are done as examples. Show by the parallelogram rule in 2 that the vector
sum of A + Bis equal and opposite toW (that is, A+ B = -W). Do the same for 3 and 4. Draw and label
