T1 > T2, because the first rope attached must hold the full weight of the loudspeaker before the second rope is attached.T1 > T2, because rope 1 is shorter than rope 2.T1 = T2, because two ropes attached to the same loudspeaker should have the same tension.T1 = T2, because the ropes attach to the loudspeaker at the same point and at the same angle.SubmitPrevious AnswersCorrectThis is a type of reasoning, used often in physics, called a symmetry argument. Since the ropes are in identical situations, except for one being themirror image of the other, they have to possess identical tensions. Since the two tensions have equal magnitude, just use T to denote the magnitudeof the tension in either rope.

Two people pull as hard as they can on horizontal ropes attached to a boat that has a mass of 200 kg. If they pull in the same direction, the boat has an acceleration of 1.52 m/s2 to the right. If they pull in opposite directions, the boat has an acceleration of 0.518 m/s2 to the left. What is the magnitude of the force each person exerts on the boat? Disregard any other horizontal forces on the boat.
A certain orthodontist uses a wire brace to align a patients crooked tooth as in Figure P4.88. The tension in the wire is adjusted to have a magnitude of 18.0 N. Find the magnitude of the net force exerted by the wire on the crooked tooth. Figure P4.38
A student decides to move a box of books into her dormitory room by pulling on a rope attached to the box. She pulls with a force of 80.0 N at an angle of 25.0 above the horizontal. The box has a mass of 25.0 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between box and floor is 0.300. (a) Find the acceleration of the box. (b) The student now starts moving the box up a 10.0 incline, keeping her 80.0 N force directed at 25.0 above the line of the incline. If the coefficient of friction is unchanged, what is the new acceleration of the box?
A box is at rest with respect to the surface of a flatbed truck. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is s. a. Find an expression for the maximum acceleration of the truck so that the box remains at rest with respect to the truck. Your expression should be in terms of s and g. b. How does your answer change if the mass of the box is doubled?

A car is stuck in the mud. A tow truck pulls on the car with the arrangement shown in Figure P5.24. The tow cable is under a tension of 2 500 N and pulls downward and to the left on the pin at its upper end. The light pin is held in equilibrium by forces exerted by the two bars A and B. Each bar is a strut; that is, each is a bar whose weight is small compared to the forces it exerts and which exerts forces only through hinge pins at its ends. Each strut exerts a force directed parallel to its length. Determine the force of tension or compression in each strut. Proceed as follows. Make a guess as to which way (pushing or pulling) each force acts on the top pin. Draw a free-body diagram of the pin. Use the condition for equilibrium of the pin to translate the free-body diagram into equations. From the equations calculate the forces exerted by struts A and B. If you obtain a positive answer, you correctly guessed the direction of the force. A negative answer means that the direction should be reversed, but the absolute value correctly gives the magnitude of the force. If a strut pulls on a pin. it is in tension. If it pushes, the strut is in compression. Identify whether each strut is in tension or in compression.
Two monkeys are holding onto a single vine of negligible mass that hangs vertically from a tree, with one monkey a few meters higher than the other. The upper monkey has mass 20.0 kg and the lower monkey mass 10.0 kg. What is the ratio of the tension in the vine above the upper monkey to the tension in the vine between the two monkeys? (Sec Section 4.5.)
Two forces are applied to a car in an effort to move it, as shown in Figure P4.12. (a) What is the resultant vector of these two forces? (b) If the car has a mass of 3 000 kg, what acceleration does it have? Ignore friction. Figure P4.12
A crate of mass 45.0 kg is being transported on the flatbed of a pickup truck. The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the trucks flatbed is 0.350, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.320. (a) The truck accelerates forward on level ground. What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the crate does not slide relative to the trucks flatbed? (b) The truck barely exceeds this acceleration and then moves with constant acceleration, with the crate sliding along its bed. What is the acceleration of the crate relative to the ground?
An inventive child named Nick wants to reach an apple in a tree without climbing the tree. Sitting in a chair connected to a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley (Fig. P5.41), Nick pulls on the loose end of the rope with such a force that the spring scale reads 250 N. Nicks true weight is 320 N, and the chair weighs 160 N. Nicks feet are not touching the ground. (a) Draw one pair of diagrams showing the forces for Nick and the chair considered as separate systems and another diagram for Nick and the chair considered as one system. (b) Show that the acceleration of the system is upward and find its magnitude. (c) Find the force Nick exerts on the chair. Figure P5.41 Problems 41 and 44.
