  D) tension, gravity, the centripetal force, and friction

Question 2

Block A of mass 8.0 kg and block X are attached to a rope that passes over a pulley. A 50-N force P is applied horizontally to block A, keeping it in contact with a rough vertical face.
 
  The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the wall and block A are s = 0.40 and k = 0.30. The pulley is light and frictionless. In the figure, the mass of block X is adjusted until block A descends at constant velocity of 4.75 cm/s when it is set into motion. What is the mass of block X?
 
  A) 6.5 kg
  B) 7.2 kg
  C) 8.0 kg
  D) 8.8 kg
