Beth, a construction worker, attempts to pull a stake out of the ground by pulling on a rope that is attached to the stake. The

rope makes an angle of 44.2°with the horizontal. If Beth exerts a force of 153.8 N on the rope, what is the magnitude of the upward component of the force acting on the stake? Answer in units of N.

Answer:

Fy=107.2 N

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

For a right triangle :

sinβ = y/h formula (1)

cosβ = x/h formula (2)

x: side adjacent to the β angle

y:  opposite side of the β angle

h: hypotenuse

Known data

h = T = 153.8 N : rope tension

β= 44.2°with the horizontal (x)

Problem development

We apply the formula (1) to calculate Ty : vertical component of the rope force.

sin44.2° = Ty/153.8 N

Ty = (153.8 N ) *(sen44.2°)= 107.2 N  directed down

for equilibrium system

Fy= Ty=107.2 N

Fy=107.2 N upward component of the force acting on the stake

meriva

I'll have to be honest with you.  I've read both of those opinions several times, carefully, and it looks to me like both technicians are saying exactly the same thing.

Now, my knowledge of shims and camber is limited (to approximately zero), so all I can say to answer the question is this:  If EITHER technician is correct, then they're BOTH correct.

Darina [25.2K]
Your mass wouldn’t change, but your weight would. Weight depends on the force of gravity however mass does not. When you land on the moon, your mass is the same as it was on the earth but weight will drop

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Activation Energy

Explanation:

Effective collisions are those that result in a chemical reaction. In order to produce an effective collision, reactant particles must possess some minimum amount of energy. This energy, used to initiate the reaction, is called the activation energy.
