Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76
The United States possesses the ten largest warships in the world, aircraft carriers of the Nimitz class. Suppose one of the ships bobs up to float 11.0 cm higher in the ocean water when 50 fighters take off from it in a time interval of 25 min, at a location where the free-fall acceleration is 9.78 m/s2. The planes have an average laden mass of 29 000 kg. Find the horizontal area enclosed by the waterline of the ship.
A model airplane of mass 0.3 kg is attachedto a horizontal string and flies in a horizontalcircle of radius 5.9 m, making 1.6 revolutionsevery 4 s. (The weight of the plane is balancedby the upward “lift” force of the air on thewings of the plane.)The accelaration due to the gravity is 9.81m/s2 Find the tension in the string.Answer in units of N.

There are two forces on the 1.19 kg box in the overhead view of the figure but only one is shown. For F1 = 15.7 N, a = 14.7 m/s2, and θ = 34.1°, find the second force (a) in unit-vector notation and as (b) a magnitude and (c) a direction. (State the direction as a negative angle measured from the +x direction.)
The distance between two telephone poles is d = 54.0 m. When a 1.20 kg bird lands on the telephone wire midway between the poles, the wire sags h = 0.206 m. How much tension (in N) does the bird produce in the wire? Ignore the weight of the wire
A m1 = 1.90-kg aluminum block and a m2 = 6.85-kg copper block are connected by a light string over a frictionless pulley. The two blocks are allowed to move on a fixed steel block wedge (of angle θ = 35.0°) For aluminum on steel, μs = 0.61 and μk = 0.47. For copper on steel, μs = 0.53 and μk = 0.36.) The steel block wedge is designed such that the left half of its surface is horizontal while its right half slopes downward, forming an inclined plane of angle θ (measured from the horizontal). A pulley is anchored where the horizontal surface and incline meet. A cord passing over the pulley connects an aluminum block of mass m1 on the horizontal surface to a copper block of mass m2 on the incline.

Two telephone poles are separated by 40 m and connected by a wire. A bird of mass 0.5 kg lands on the wire midway between the poles, causing the wire to sag 2 m below horizontal. Assuming the wire has negligible mass, what is the tension in the wire?
A picture frame hung against a wall is suspended by two wires attached to its upper corners. If the two wires make the same angle with the vertical, what must this angle be if the tension in each wire is equal to 0.75 of the weight of the frame?
Two blocks A and B are connected by a horizontal bar whose mass is negligible. The mass of block A is 100-kg and the mass of block B is 50-kg. What force P will just prevent the blocks from slipping down the plane?The coefficient of friction between block A and the inclined surface is o.20, while that of block B and the inclined surface is 0.30.
