A large wrecking ball is held in place by two light steel cables. If the massm of the wrecking ball is 4090 kg, what are (a) the tension TB in the cablethat makes an angle of 40° with the vertical, and (b) the tension TA in thehorizontal cable?
In the design of a supermarket, there are to be several rampsconnecting different parts of the store. Customers will haveto push grocery carts up the ramps and it is desirable thatthis not be too difficult. The engineer has done a survey andfound that almost no one complains if the force requiredis no more than 18 N. Ignoring friction, at what maximumangle θ should the ramps be built, assuming a full 25-kg cart?
