L GAS A 45.0 kg sign hangs at the end of a bar where L = 3.10 meters in length. A cable attaches to the end of the horizontal bar and to a wall 2.70 meters above where the bar is attached to the wall. The bar has a mass of 13-kg. What is the tension in the cable? Give your answer in Newtons to 3 significant figures (no decimal places in this case).

Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76
The walkway ABC of the footbridge is stiffened by adding the cable ADC and the short post of length L. If the tension in the cable is not to exceed 420 lb, what is the smallest value of L for which the 160-lb person can be supported at B?
What is the tension force present on the string attached to the ceiling making an angle of 34° if a 65kg box is hang on both of its corners, considering that the other end is attached to the wall horizontally?
Find the tensions in each of the three ropes (in N), given m2 = 10.0 kg and ?3 = 55.0°
Two masses mA =9.3kg and mB=6.1kg are on inclines and are connected together by a string as shown in the figure. The angles theta subscript A=700 and theta subscript B = 360 . In the absence of the friction, the force F is required to pull the masses at a constant velocity up the fixed inclines. The force F is now removed. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the two blocks? Take g =9.81 m/s2, and express your answer using two decimal places.
A window washer is standing on a scaffold supported by a vertical rope at each end. The scaffold weighs 192 N and is 3.1 m long. What is the tension in each rope when the 710–N worker stands 1.06 m from one end? Smaller tension? Larger tension?
A tutor told me that the answer to 1b was 10N but I don't understand why it would be 10N for the tension. If that is correct could someone break it down for me?
What would be the maximum weight W of the block, shown in the following figure, so that the tension developed in any cable does not exeed 100 N
A picture frame hung against a wall is suspended by two wires attached to its upper corners. If the two wires make the same angle with the vertical, what must this angle be if the tension in each wire is equal to 0.75 of the weight of the frame?
The box B weighs 50 lb. The coefficients of friction between the cable and the fixed round supports are μs= 0.40 and μk= 0.30. What is the minimum force F required to support the box? What force F is required to move the box upward at a constant rate?
