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?
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

Using the same force table that you used, a student was given two forces and asked to find a single force that would produce equilibrium with the two forces. The two forces were given by providing one of the components and the angle the force made with the positive x- axis. The two forces were as follows: Force 1: ?? = −2.70 ?; ? = 220.0 degreees Force 2: ?? = 3.20 ?; ? = 60.0 degrees (a) For each force, calculate the magnitude of the force and the mass required to produce it. (b) Calculate the mass and its angle of application to produce equilibrium with these two forces. Please specify your angle as counterclockwise positive with respect to the positive x-axis.
