Question

Problem 2:  A fisherman has caught a fish on his pole, and to keep the pole steady he has to apply an upward force of F2 = 255 N at an angle of 51.5° with respect to the pole (see figure). The length of his pole is 3.1 m, and he is holding it a distance 0.45 m from the end, where he is applying a downward force F1

Randomized Variables

F2 = 255 N
θ = 51.5°
L = 3.1 m
d = 0.45 m 

 
   

Part (a) With how much force, F1, in newtons, does he have to push straight downward on the end of his pole to keep the pole from moving? You may assume the pole is massless.
Numeric   : A numeric value is expected and not an expression.
F1 = __________________________________________


Part (b) What is the mass of the fish on the end of the pole, in kilograms?
Numeric   : A numeric value is expected and not an expression.
m = __________________________________________
