This is what I got:
Net force in the Y direction:
ΣFy = T1 - T2
F = ma
ma = T1 - T2
Isolate for T2
ma - T1 = -T2
Multiply by -1
T1 - ma = T2
100 - (3)(2) = T2
100 - 6 = T2
T2 = 94 N
There are two forces at play:
- The gravitational force acting downward due to the mass of the bucket and the water that it contains.
- The upward force that your hand exerts on the bucket.
If the magnitude of the force your hand exerts on the bucket equals the magnitude of the gravitational force, the bucket is in static equilibrium. That means the bucket is not moving and the forces acting on it balance each other out, making the net force 0.
Having 0 net force means the bucket doesn't undergo any acceleration, or change in motion.
The part that causes the disc caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released is the square-cut O-ring.
The square cut seal is the most important part of a disc brake caliper, for keeping the brake behind the piston so that when you step on the brake pedal, it releases a pressure that applied to the piston which in return applies the pad to the rotor.
If you were given distance & period of time, you would be able to calculate the speed.
Hope this helps!
