Two packing crates of masses 10.0 kg and 5.00 kg are con- nected by a light string that passes over a frictionless pul- ley as in Figure P4.60. The 5.00-kg crate lies on a smooth incline of angle 40.0°. Find (a) the acceleration of the 5.00-kg crate and (b) the ten- sion in the string. 5.00 kg 10.0 kg 40.0° Figure P4.60

vy chandelier with mass 125 kg is hung by chains in equilibrium from the ceilingof a concert hall as shown in Figure P5.77, with θ1 = 37.0° and θ 2 = 64.0°. Assuming thechains are massless, what are the tensions FT1, FT2, and FT3in the three chains?
Balancing carefully, three boys inch out onto a horizontal tree branch above a pond, each planning to dive in separately. The third boy in line notices that the branch is barely strong enough to support them. He decides to jump straight up and land back on the branch to break it, spilling all three into the pond. When he starts to carry out his plan, at what precise moment does the branch break? Explain. Suggestion: Pretend to be the third boy and imitate what he does in slow motion. If you are still unsure, stand on a bathroom scale and repeat the suggestion.
