Am = 60 kg woman practices her tight rope routine on a slackline in her backyard. The line is tied between two trees that are d = 5 m apart. When she is in the middle of the line, it makes a 0 = 10° angle with the horizontal on either side of her. The tension in the line is the same on both sides. This 10º I
Please look at the picture to be able to answer the following questions.
Question 1: If FT is the force of tension in one side of the line, which of the following represents the total force of the line on the woman in the y direction?
a. FT sin θ
b. 2 FT cos θ
c. FT cos θ
d. 2 FT sin θ
Question 2: Which of the following is the most useful formulation of Newton's 2nd Law in the y direction?
a. mg + 2 FT cos θ = 0
b. mg - 2 FT sin θ = ma y
c. mg + 2 FT sin θ = 0
d. mg - 2 FT sin θ = 0
Question 3: What is the magnitude of the tension force in one side of the line? Assume g = 9.8 m/s^2 and answer in N.
