- A bag of cement weighing 325 N hangs in equilibrium from three wires as suggested in Figure P4.23. Two of the wires make angles 1 = 60.0 and 2 = 40.0 with the horizontal. Assuming the system is in equilibrium, find the tensions T1, T2, and T3 in the wires. Figure P4.23 Problems 23 and 24.arrow_forwardA 2.30 kg block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force F of magnitude 5.316 N and a vertical force P are then applied to the block (see the figure). The coefficients of friction for the block and surface are us = 0.4 and uk = 0.25. Determine the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the block if the magnitude of P is (a)8.00 N and (b)12.0 N. (The upward pull is insufficient to move the block vertically.)
