Find the tension in each cord in the figure below if the weight of the suspended object is w. Express your answer in terms of w. The strings are labeled A, B and C, hence, label the tensions along these as TA, TB and Tc, too. This acts as a two-body system that is composed of the suspended object and point O (the intersection of the 3 strings). Sketch separate FBDS for the 2 parts of the system.

Hi! Please ndicate the given, diagram, FBD, and the solution with no shortcuts, Thanks! 5) A body system has three forces which are all at rest and in equilibrium. F1 is measured at 170 N whilst F3 is equal to340 N. The direction of each force is shown in the figure below. To balance the force within the body system, computefor the magnitude of F2 and its direction.

3) I hate to burst your bubble, but this video is fake. There’s a battery powered skateboard hidden in the mop bucket. Assume the mass of the entire system is {43} kg, and gravity is 10 N/kg. (Maybe start with part d?) If the board can accelerate at 1.5 m/s2, how much net force is needed? If the skateboard motor can put out 300 N of force, how much friction (neglect air resistance combined) does the system have? What is the kinetic frictional coefficient for mop bucket on roadway?

Measuring coefficients of friction A coin is placed near one edge of a book lying on a table, and that edge of the book is lifted until the coin just slips down the incline as shown in Figure P4.82. The angle of the incline, C, called the critical angle, is measured. (a) Draw a free-body diagram for the coin when it is on the verge of slipping and identify all forces acting on it. Your free-body diagram should include a force of static friction acting up the incline. (b) Is the magnitude of the friction force equal to sn for angles less than C? Explain. What can you definitely say about the magnitude of the friction force for any angle c? (c) Show that the coefficient of static friction is given by s = tan c. (d) Once the coin starts to slide down the incline, the angle can be adjusted to a new value c c such that the coin moves down the incline with constant speed. How does observation enable you to obtain the coefficient of kinetic friction? Figure P4.82
