Article Description

Looking closely to the mechanism which make sliding doors move, one sees that the motion of the commonly used objects can be understood by solving a problem related to the motion of blocks and pulleys. The system is by itself interesting to be modelled as a problem in Newtonian mechanics, and the solution of the equation of the motion can lead us to estimate the time it takes for a sliding door to open or close.
