A 10-kg body is suspended by means of a string. Another string is attached to the bottom of the body and a 5-kg body is suspended from the lower end of the lower string. Find the tension in each string
2. A 10-kg body is suspended by means of a string. Another string is attached to the bottom of the body and a 5-kg body is suspended from the lower end of the lower string. Find the tension in each string.
3. Two strings support a small 8-kg body. Find the tension in the strings if they both make 30o with the vertical.
4. A weight of 100 newton is suspended by means of a string. It is then pulled aside by a horizontal force until the string makes an angle of 37o with the vertical. Find the tension in the string and the horizontal force for this equilibrium position.
5. The following three forces act on a particle: 30 N at 30o with the x-axis, 50 N at 135o with the x-axis, and 20 N along the negative x-axis. Find the fourth force on the particle which will keep it in equilibrium.
6. Two forces which are equal in magnitude act on a body. To keep the body in equilibrium, a third force which is equal in magnitude to each of the two forces is required. What is the angle between the two forces?
