The two barges shown here are coupled by a cable of negligible mass. The mass of the front barge is 2.00103kgand the mass of the rear barge is 3.00103kg . A tugboat pulls the front barge with a horizontal force of magnitude 20.0103N . and the frictional forces of the water on the front and rear barges are 8.00103Nand 10.0103N . respectively. Find the horizontal acceleration of the barges and the tension in the connecting cable.
The two ropes supporting the hammock shown in the illustration below are both tied to the trees at the same height. At what angle θ will the tension T in each rope be equal to the person’s weight. In other words, at what angle θ does Tension = mg? (Hint: Use the force table to find the angle θ by placing three equal masses on the three strings. Position one of the masses (representing the person in the hammock) at 270O and position the other two masses (representing the tension in the ropes) at the angles that establish equilibrium.) Cross check your answer by finding the angle θ using the component method.
What is the tension in the two ropes in the picture shown below?
The figure below shows a bird feeder that weighs 165.3 N. The feeder is supported by a vertical string, which is in turn tied to two strings, each of which is attached to a horizontal branch. The left string makes a 60° angle with the branch, while the right string makes a 30° angle. What is the tension in each string (in N)?
A sign hanging in the window of Joe's Diner has a mass of 2 kg. If the supporting strings each make an angle of 45° with the sign and the supporting hooks are at the same height (as shown in the figure below), find the tension (in N) in each string. (Assume that gravity exerts a force of 9.8m N on an object of mass m kg.)
According to the data below, what is the relationship of the angle and tension?
If a 650-lb load is suspended by two chains as shown in the figure to the right. What is the magnitude of the force each chain must be able to support? F1+ F2 + F3 would stand as an equation: What's the force each chain must be able to support? write in pounds.
In the figure below, find the force on the rod exerted between masses. The friction coefficient is 0.1 The angle between the force of F and the horizontal axis is 10 degrees.
The magnitudes of the three forces applied to the eye bolt are T1 = 110 lb, T2 = 40 lb, and T3 = 150 lb. Replace these forces with a single equivalent force R. Show the result on a sketch of the eye bolt.
Two blocks are connected by a rope, as shown above. The masses of the blocks are 5 kg for the upper block and 10 kg for the lower block. An upward applied force of magnitude F acts on the upper block. If the net acceleration is downward but has a magnitude less than g , then which has the larger magnitude, the force F or the tension in the rope?
In the figure shown, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline plane is 0.29. Determine the tension in the string and the magnitude of the acceleration of the suspended block as it falls. Disregard any pulley mass of friction in the pulley. Take M=3 kg
