A bar extends perpendicularly from a vertical wall. The length of the bar is 2 m, and its mass is 10 kg. The free end of the rod

is attached to a point on the wall by a light cable, which makes an angle of 30° with the bar. Find the tension in the cable.

Answer:

T = 98.1 N

Explanation:

Given:

- mass of bar m = 10 kg

- Length of the bar L = 2 m

- Angle between Cable and wall Q = 30 degres

Find:

- Find the tension in the cable.

Solution:

- Take moments about intersection of bar and wall, to be zero (static equilibrium)

                                    (M)_a = 0

                                    T*sin( 30 )*L - m*g*L/2 = 0

                                    T*sin(30) - m*g / 2 = 0

                                    T = m*g / 2*sin(30)

                                    T = 10*9.81 / 2*sin(30)

                                    T = 98.1 N

If distance between two charges increased by 2 times then force
kati45 [8]

Explanation:

The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value.

a man exerts 700 newtons of force to move a piece of furniture 4 meters. if it takes him 2 seconds to move the furniture, how mu
dybincka [34]

                               Work = (force) x (distance)

The work he did:    Work = (700 N) x (4m)  =  2,800 joules

The rate at which
he did it (power):    Work/time =  2,800 joules/2 sec

                                                =  1,400  joules/sec

                                                =  1,400 watts

                                                =  1.877... horsepower (rounded)

A small box is held in place against a rough vertical wall by someone pushing on it with a force directed upward at 27 ∘ above t
ycow [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Applied force, F = 18 N

Coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.4

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μs = 0.3

θ = 27°

Let N be the normal reaction of the wall acting on the block and m be the mass of block.

Resolve the components of force F.

As the block is in the horizontal equilibrium, so

F Cos 27° = N

N = 18 Cos 27° = 16.04 N

As the block does not slide so it means that the syatic friction force acting on the block balances the downwards forces acting on the block .

The force of static friction is μs x N = 0.4 x 16.04 = 6.42 N   .... (1)

The vertically downward force acting on the block is mg - F Sin 27°

                                                      = mg - 18 Sin 27° = mg - 8.172    ... (2)

Now by equating the forces from equation (1) and (2), we get

mg - 8.172 = 6.42

mg = 14.592

m x 9.8 = 14.592

m = 1.49 kg

Thus, the mass of block is 1.5 kg.
