A trapeze artist with swing weighs 800n; he is momentarily held to one side by his partner so that the swing ropes make an angle of 25.0 degrees with the vertical. In such a condition of static equilibrium, what is the horizontal force being applied by the partner?
With this question do I need to add the y component of the applied force to the mg force or substract in this question. Can you also tell me when I do which operation?
A uniform beam of mass m is inclined at an angle θ to the horizontal. Its upper end (point P) produces a 90° bend in a very rough rope tied to a wall, and its lower end rests on a rough floor (as shown). Let μs represent the coefficient of static friction between beam and floor. Assume μs is less than the cotangent of θ. (a) Find an expression for the maximum mass M that can be suspended from the top before the beam slips. Determine (b) the magnitude of the reaction force at the floor and (c) the magnitude of the force exerted by the beam on the rope at P in terms of m, M, and μs.
The horizontal beam is supported by springs at its ends. Each spring has a stiffness of k = 4.6 kN/m and is originally unstretched when the beam is in the horizontal position.

A pendulum consists of a 2.0 m long steel wire supporting a lentil of mass 20 kg.

A fisherman has caught a fish on his pole, and to keep the pole steady he has to apply an upward force of F2 = 240 N at an angle of 83.5° with respect to the pole (see figure). The length of his pole is 4.1 m, and he is holding it a distance 0.35 m from the end, where he is applying a downward force F1.With how much force, F1, in newtons, does he have to push straight downward on the end of his pole to keep the pole from moving? You may assume the pole is massless. F1 = What is the mass of the fish on the end of the pole, in kilograms? m =
