Using your graph paper, a protractor, and a centimeter scale, draw arrows to represent the forces F1 and F2 described above. Choose a scale and draw each force vector so that its length is proportional to the magnitude of the force. The direction of each arrow must be the same direction as the force it represents. Using the head-to-tail method, draw an arrow that represents the resultant of the two vectors. (Don’t forget to record the scale you chose.) From the length of the resultant vector R, determine its magnitude according to your scale. Using the protractor, determine the resultant vector’s direction (angle). Please record your results in the table on the first screenshot. Using your calculator, determine the x and y components of F1 and F2. Remember that FX = Fcosθ and FY = F sinθ. Find the x and y components of the resultant from the sum of x and y components. Calculate the magnitude of the resultant force from the square root of (R 2 + R 2 ). Calculate the direction of the…

A spider with a mass of m= 4.06×10−5 kg hangs motionless from three stands of web. One strand is vertical, and the other two each make an angle of θ=21.3∘ with the horizontal ceiling, as shown in the diagram. Let Tv be the tension in the vertical strand of the web, and let To be the tension in either of the other strands. In numeric responses, use 9.80m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. 1. Write an expression for the tension in a strand that attaches to the ceiling, To. 2. What is the numeric value, in newtons, of the tension To?

Hi there, I cannot seem to figure out this question. I got an answer of 14.04 but it is incorrect. Can someone help walk me through this question? A vendor at the local art fair ties her tent to the concrete-filled coffee can shown in the picture below. A stiff breeze comes up and the string becomes taut. What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can and the ground is 0.36. Thank you!
Two blocks are connected by a string. The inclination of the ramp is θ, while the masses of the blocks are m1 and m2. Friction is negligible. 1. Write an equation for the magnitude of the acceleration the two blocks experience. Give your equation in terms of m1, m2, θ, and the acceleration due to gravity g. 2. Write an equation for the tension in the string in terms of m1, the acceleration due to gravity g, and the acceleration of the two blocks a.
