Figure 3 shows a stationary metal block hanging from the middle of a stretched wire which is suspended from a horizontal beam. T

he tension in each half of the wire is 15 N. (a) Calculate for the wire at A, (i) the resultant horizontal component of the tension forces, (ii) the resultant vertical component of the tension forces. Can someone explain why the first one is 0?

5 0

Explanation:

(i) The horizontal component of the tension in the right wire points right, and the horizontal component of the tension in the left wire points left.  Since these components are equal and opposite, the resultant horizontal force is 0.

∑Fₓ = 15 N cos 20° − 15 N cos 20°

∑Fₓ = 0 N

(ii) ∑Fᵧ = 15 N sin 20° + 15 N sin 20°

∑Fᵧ = 10.26 N

In the following three scenarios, I do not understand one thing: how do we know that the initial velocity of the y component (vy
forsale [732]

The y-component of the initial velocity vector is zero only in scenarios A and C. The weight/package on either plane inherits a non-zero x-component that matches the plane's horizontal velocity, but with respect to the vertical direction the objects are at rest, and dropping them from a given height doesn't confer them an initial vertical velocity. On the other hand, if the object was thrown upward and allowed to fall, or shot downward by a cannon, then the initial vertical velocity would be non-zero.

In scenario B, the dolphin must have some non-zero y-component of velocity in order to launch itself out of the water, because otherwise it would stay at a fixed depth.
