A block of mass m1
is connected to an empty bucket of mass
1.35 kg by a cord over a frictionless pulley. The coefficient of
the static friction between the table and the block is 0.45 and
the coefficient of kinetic friction between the table and the
block is 0.32. Water is gradually added to the bucket until the
system just begins to move. If m1
is 28 kg;
(a) Calculate the mass of the water added to the bucket
(b) Calculate the acceleration of the entire system
