Answer:
19.95 J
Explanation:
The center of mass of the ladder is initially at a height of:
The center of mass of the ladder ends at a height of:
=L/2
So, the work done is equal to the change in potential energy which is:
W = PE =
now
therefore
W = [mgL/2]×[1 - sin(theta)]
W = [(7.30)(9.81)(2.50)/2]×[1-sin(51°)]
solving this we get
W = 19.95 J
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the box, m = 100 kg
Left rope makes an angle of 20 degrees with the vertical, and the right rope makes an angle of 40 degrees.
From the attached figure, the x and y component of forces is given by :
Let and
is the resultant in x and y direction.
As the system is balanced the net force acting on it is 0. So,
.............(1)
..................(2)
On solving equation (1) and (2) we get:
(tension on the left rope)
(tension on the right rope)
So, the tension on the right rope is 1063.36 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
