Acart of mass m = 2.40 kg can roll without friction on a level track. a light string draped over a light, frictionless pulley connects the cart to a hanger with mass m = 0.50 kg. the cart is released from rest, allowing it to roll, pulled by the falling hanger.
what is the formula for the acceleration a of the hanger in terms of the tension t, the hanger's mass m, and the acceleration of gravity g? the key for the formula entries assumes the following: t and g are positive numbers, and in the coordinate system up and right are positive, while down and left are negative. hint: get a piece of paper and draw careful free body diagrams of the cart and the hanger. make sure that the vector for the tension force in each diagram has the same length.

what is the formula for the acceleration a of the cart in terms of the tension t, and its mass m?
formula for acart =
use the two equations you found above to eliminate t to give the acceleration of the cart in terms of m, m and g. (be careful about the sign of each acceleration! )
revised formula for acart =
calculate the the numerical value for the acceleration (assume g = 9.81 m/s2).
value of acart =

Aparticle of mass m is projected with an initial velocity v0 in a direction making an angle α with the horizontal level ground as shown in the figure. the motion of the particle occurs under a uniform gravitational field g pointing downward. (a) write down the lagrangian of the system by using the cartesian coordinates (x, y). (b) is there any cyclic coordinate(s). if so, interpret it (them) physically. (c) find the euler-lagrange equations. find at least one constant of motion. (d) solve the differential equation in part (c) and obtain x and y coordinates of the projectile as a function of time. (e) construct the hamiltonian of the system, h, and write down the hamilton’s equations (canonical equations) of motion.
