The drawing shows Robin Hood(mass = 77.0 kg) about to escape froma dangerous situation. With one hand,he is gripping the rope that holds up achandelier (mass = 195 kg). When hecuts the rope where it is tied to thefloor, the chandelier will fall, and hewill b. pulled up toward a balconyabove. Ignore the friction between therope and the beams over which itslides, and find (a) the accelerationwith which Robin is pulled upward and (b) thetension in the rope while Robin escapes.
Please answer this NEATLY, COMPLETELY, and CORRECTLY for an UPVOTE. In the system shown, a 150 N collar-pulley assembly slides on a horizontal shaft with coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.10 between the collar and the shaft, and is acted upon by a force P with a magnitude of P = 253.5 N at an angle θ = 30.35° as shown. Knowing that the assembly is initially at rest, what is the time when the velocity reaches to 3 m/s? Also, at this instant, find the tension in the cord and the velocity of block A.
A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.
The distance between two telephone poles is d = 54.0 m. When a 1.20 kg bird lands on the telephone wire midway between the poles, the wire sags h = 0.206 m. How much tension (in N) does the bird produce in the wire? Ignore the weight of the wire
In the figure, a body with a mass of 2 kg moves under the influence of two constant forces F1 = 5N and F2 = 4N in the xy plane. At time t = 0, the object is at point 0 and its speed is V = 2i + j (m / s). What is the acceleration of the particle and its position after 2 seconds in terms of the unit vector?

A 6000 N elevator from rest attains an upward velocity of 6m/s in 4 seconds with uniform acceleration. If a 400 N man is standing inside the elevator, compute the apparent weight of man and tension of the supporting cable.
A person pulls at an angle of 0 = 34.0° on three connected crates of masses m¡ = 25.0 kg, m2 = 18.0 kg, and Pull m3 = 15.0 kg over a smooth horizontal floor, as shown in A В the figure. The crates are connected to each other by m, m, m3 identical massless, horizontal strings A and B, each of which can support a maximum tension of 45.0 N before breaking. What is the magnitude F, of the largest pulling force that can be exerted without breaking either of the strings?
Objects of masses m1 = 4.00 kg and m2 = 9.00 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley as in the figure below. The object m1 is held at rest on the floor, and m2 rests on a fixed incline of θ = 39.5°. The objects are released from rest, and m2 slides 1.25 m down the slope of the incline in 3.85 s. A triangular structure is oriented such that its base rests upon a horizontal surface, its left side is perpendicular to its base, and its right side forms an incline of angle θ. A pulley is attached to the structure's apex. Two objects are connected by a cord that passes over the pulley. An object labeled m1 is attached to the left end of the cord and hangs such that it is very close to the horizontal surface. A rectangular object labeled m2 is attached to the end of the cord and rests upon the incline. A pale image of m1 is above m1, and a pale image of m2 is farther down the incline than m2. (a) Determine the acceleration of each object. (Enter…
