A car is stuck in the mud. A tow truck pulls on the car with the arrangement shown in Fig. P4.32. The tow cable is under a tension of 2 500 N and pulls downward and to the left on the pin at its upper end. The light pin is held in equilibrium by forces exerted by the two bars A and B. Each bar is a strut; that is, each is a bar whose weight is small compared to the forces it exerts and which exerts forces only through hinge pins at its ends. Each strut exerts a force directed parallel to its length. Determine the force of tension or compression in each strut. Proceed as follows. Make a guess as to which way (pushing or pulling) each force acts on the top pin. Draw a free-body diagram of the pin. Use the condition for equilibrium of the pin to translate the free-body diagram into equations. From the equations calculate the forces exerted by struts A and B. If you obtain a positive answer, you correctly guessed the direction of the force. A negative answer means that the direction should be reversed, but the absolute value correctly gives the magnitude of the force. If a strut pulls on a pin, it is in tension. If it pushes, the strut is in compression. Identify whether each strut is in tension or in compression.
For the woman being pulled forward on the toboggan in Figure 4.33, is the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the ground on the toboggan (a) equal to the total weight of the woman plus the toboggan, (b) greater than the total weight, (c) less than the total weight, or (d) possibly greater than or less than the total weight, depending on the size of the weight relative to the tension in the rope?
The coefficient of static friction between the 3.00-kg crate and the 35.0 incline of Figure P4.31 is 0.300. What minimum force F must be applied to the crate perpendicular to the incline to prevent the crate from sliding down the incline? Figure P4.31
Suppose your friend is sitting on a sled and asks you to move her across a flat, horizontal field. You have a choice of (a) pushing her from behind by applying a force downward on her shoulders at 30 below the horizontal (Fig. 4.22a) or (b) attaching a rope to the front of the sled and pulling with a force at 30 above the horizontal (Fig. 4.22b). Which option would be easier and why?
