Each of the solid circular disk wheels has a mass of 2 kg, and the inner solid
Question:
Each of the solid circular disk wheels has a mass of 2 kg, and the inner solid cylinder has a mass of 3 kg. The disks and cylinder are mounted on the small central shaft so that each can rotate independently of the other with negligible friction in the bearings. Calculate the acceleration of the center of the wheels when the 20-N force is applied as shown. The coefficients of friction between the wheels and the horizontal surface are μk = 0.30 and μs = 0.40.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
