A block with mass M is attached to the lower end of a vertical, uniform rope with mass m
and length L. A constant upward force F is applied to the top of the rope, causing the rope and block to accelerate
upward. Find the tension in the rope at a distance x from the top end of the rope, where x can have any value from 0 to L.
A small box is held in place against a rough wall by someone pushing on it with a force directed upward at an angle of 260 above the horizontal. The coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the box and the wall are 0.40 and 0.30, respectively. The box slides down unless the applied force has a magnitude of 13 N. What is the mass of the box?
A picture frame hung against a wall is suspended by two wires attached to its upper corners. If the two wires make the same angle with the vertical, what must this angle be if the tension in each wire is equal to 0.75 of the weight of the frame? (Ignore any friction between the wall and the picture frame.)
