In order to get his car out of the mud, a man ties one end of a rope to the front bumper and the other end to a tee 15 m away as shown below. He then pulls on the center of the rope with a force of 400 N, which causes its center to be displaced 0.30 m, as shown. What is the force of the rope on the car?
A uniform horizontal strut weighs 400.0 N. One end of the strut is attached to a hinged support the wall and the other end of the strut is attached to a sign that weighs 200.0 N The strut is also supported by a cable attached between the end of the strut and the wall. Assuming that the entire weight of the sign is attached at the very end of the s find the tension in the cable and the force at the hinge of the strut.
A 70 kg man’s arm, including the hand, can be modeled as a 75-cm-long uniform cylinder with a mass of 3.5 kg. In raising both his arms, from hanging down to straight up, by how much does he raise his center of gravity?
From the step ladder shown in the figure, sides AC and CE are each 2.44 m long and hinged at point C. Bar BD is a tie-rod 0.762 m long, halfway up. A man weighing 845 N climbs 1.8 m along the ladder. Assuming the floor is frictionless and neglecting the mass of the ladder, find the tension (in N) in the tie-rod.
A uniform 35.0-kg beam of length, 5 5.00 m is supported by a verticalrope located d 5 1.20 m fromits left end as in Figure P8.18. Theright end of the beam is supportedby a vertical column. Find (a) thetension in the rope and (b) theforce that the column exerts onthe right end of the beam.
A meter stick is pivoted at its 50cm mark but does not balance because of non-uniformities in its material that cause its center of gravity to be displaced from its geometrical center. However, when weights of 150g and 300g are placed at the 10cm and 75cm marks, respectively, balance is obtained. The weights are then interchanged, and balance is again obtained by shifting the pivot point to the 43cm mark. Find the mass of the meter stick and the location of its center of gravity.
A person is standing on a section of uniform scaffolding as shown in the figure. The section of scaffolding is L = 1.50 m in length, has a ms = 25.5 kg mass, and is supported by three ropes as shown. Determine the magnitude of the tension in each rope when a person with a weight of Wp = 660 N is a distance d = 0.700 m from the left end.
