A hiker with a mass of 85 kg wants to drag a 200 kg sled over snow. She does this by tying a rope to the sled (at ground level) and running it over her shoulder. The rope running between her and the sled makes a 45 degree angle with the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.1, what must the coefficient of friction between her boots and the ground be for her to move the sled?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
