A block of mass M = 9 (kg) is tied to a homogeneous rope of mass m = 1 (kg) L = 1 (m) length. As shown in the figure, when the horizontal force F = 100 (N) is applied to the end of the rope, the block moves with acceleration a. What is the tensile force (N) at the midpoint of the rope? Neglect the rope hanging due to its weight.
Suppose three forces with magnitudes of 198 N, 275 N, and 205 N are placed in equilibrium. If the 205-N force acts in the +y-direction, what is one of the two configurations in the xy-plane that the remaining forces may have? Give numerical values for the angles.
Forces F→1, F→2, and F→3 act on the structure of the figure, shown in an overhead view. We wish to put the structure in equilibrium by applying a fourth force, at a point such as P.

A fisherman has caught a fish on his pole, and to keep the pole steady he has to apply an upward force of F2 = 265 N at an angle of 58° with respect to the pole (see figure). The length of his pole is 3.2 m, and he is holding it a distance 0.65 m from the end, where he is applying a downward force F1. Part (a) 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. Part (b) What is the mass of the fish on the end of the pole, in kilograms?
The upper end of a wide-skid W 8 × 21 steel column (E = 30 × 103 ksi) is supported laterally between two tubes (see figure). The tubes are not attached to the column and the friction between the tubes and the column is not reliable. The base of the column provides fixed support and the column is 13 ft long. Determine the critical load for the column, consider the Euler buckling in the web plane and also perpendicular to the web plane.
