An electric light fixture weighing 15 N hangs from a point C, by two strings AC and BC. The string AC is inclined at 60° to the horizontal and BC at 45° to the horizontal as shown, determine the forces in the strings AC and BC. 1. What scale did you use? 2. What is the force in string AC? 3. What is the force in string BC?

See images below: If the bar and block are too heavy the strings may break. Which of the two identical strings will break first? Assuming that m1 d, and L are held fixed, what is the maximum block mass m (max) for which the bar will always be stable? In other words, what is the maximum block mass such that x (critical) ≤ 0? Answer in terms of m1, d, and L.
We have two different vertical mass-spring systems, as shown in the figure below.(a). What is the frequency of system A? What is the first time at which the mass has maximum speed whiletraveling in the upward direction?(b). What is the period of system B? What is the first time at which the energy is entirely potential?(c). Given that the mass is the same in both systems, what is the ratio of their spring constants? That iswhat is kA/kB?
Determine the angle α , and then the intensity of the pull on the two cables Tca and Tcb, for which the pull is the smallest possible: a) on the BC cable. b) simultaneously on both cables Tip: Think about the triangle of forces.
How do you find the finding the theta for the components of Ab? the equations I have found to solve the problem is... Ay-FABSin(theta)=0 and -FABCos(theta)+Ax-FAG=0 because Ay is shown in tension and Fab and FAG Is assumed to be in compression. round your answers to three decimal places and state if the member is in compression or tension (if the number you find for a member negative the the direction we assumed is wrong)
Please compute the case problem a, b, and c:A 1,000 lumen source is 4 meter away from the center of a screen.The edge of the screen is 5 meters from the light source.a. What is the intensity of the light falling on the center of the screen?b. What is the intensity of light falling on the edge of the screen?Formula:E = I/d^2 Where : E = is the intensity of the light on the object,lux (lx) or foot candleI = is the intensity of the light at the source,lumen (lm)d = is the distance of the light source from the object,meters or ft. Example Problem1. If the magazine is 2m from the 100 lumen source, what is the intensity of the light failing on themagazine?E = I/d2E = 100/22E = 25 lux
