15.] A massless chord is initially positioned in a horizontal manner with two poles supporting its ends. A man then hangs at the center of the chord thus bending it by 5.0° with respect to its initial horizontal position. The bent chord forms two sides of an isosceles triangle with the other side being the line segment of its original position; the two equal angles of the triangle have a value of 5.0°. If the weight of the man is 485 N, what is resulting tension associated with the chord?

An 85 kg man tries to pull himself up the face of a boulder using a rope hooked to a tree above it. The face of the boulder created a 50.0° angle with the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between his shoes and the boulder is 0.350, will he make it up if he pulls with 550. N of force? Remember his shoes will try to slip backwards when considering friction.
A traffic light with a weight of 122 N is suspended from a support with cables, making angles of 37° and 530° with the horizontal as shown in the figure. According to this; 15 - Calculate the value of ǀ T1 + T2ǀ according to the figure. A) 122 N B) 79,9 N C) 75,1 N D) 73,3 N E) 60,1 N
As you increase the force that you apply while pulling on arope, which of the following is NOT affected?(a) The stress on the rope.(b) The strain on the rope.(c) The Young’s modulus of the rope.(d) All of the above.(e) None of the above
A persons head is bent over her book. The head weighs P=37.2 N and is supported by the muscle force F m exerted by the neck extensor muscles and by the contact force F c exerted at the atlantooccipital joint. Given that the magnitude of F m is 60.0 N and is directed 35.0 degree below the horizontal. Find the magnitude of the contact force F c.
Show that, as stated in the text, a force F exerted on a flexible medium at its center and perpendicular to its length (such as on the tightrope wire in Figure 4.17) gives rise to a tension of magnitude T=F2sin() .
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
This problem returns to the tightrope walker studied in Example 4.6, who created a tension of 3.94103 N in a wire making an angle 5.0° below the horizontal with each supporting pole. Calculate how much this tension stretches the steel wire if it was originally 15 m long and 0.50 cm in diameter.
To consider the effect of wires hung on poles, we take data from Example 4.8, in which tensions in wires supporting a traffic light were calculated. The left wire made an angle 30.0° below the horizontal with the top of its pole and carried a tension of 108 N. The 12.0 m tall hollow aluminum pole is equivalent in stiffness to a 4.50 cm diameter solid cylinder. (a) How far is it bent to the side? (b) By how much is it compressed?
When using a pencil eraser, you exert a vertical force of 6.00 N at a distance of 2.00 cm from the hardwood-eraser joint. The pencil is 6.00 mm in diameter and is held at an angle of 20.0° to the horizontal. (a) By how much does the wood flex perpendicular to its length? (b) How much is it compressed lengthwise?
In about 1915, Henry Sincosky of Philadelphia suspended himself from a rafter by gripping the rafter with the thumb of each hand on one side and the fingers on the opposite side. Sincosky’s mass was 79 kg. If the coefficient of static friction between hand and rafter was 0.70, what was the least magnitude of the normal force on the rafter from each thumb or opposite fingers? (After suspending himself, Sincosky chinned himself on the rafter and then moved hand-over-hand along the rafter. If you do not think Sincosky’s grip was remarkable, try to repeat his stunt.)

A farmer making grape juice fills a glass bottle to the brim and caps it tightly. The juice expands more than the glass when it warms up, in such a way that the volume increases by 0.2% (that is, ΔV/V0 =2×10−3) relative to the space available. Calculate the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the juice per square centimeter if its bulk modulus is 1.8×109 N/m2, assuming the bottle does not break. In view of your answer, do you think the bottle will survive?
