Answer:

(a) T = W/2(1-tanθ)  (b) 39.81°

Explanation:

(a) The equation for tension (T) can be derived by considering the summation of moment in the clockwise direction. Thus:

Summation of moment in clockwise direction is equivalent to zero. Therefore,

T*l*(sinθ) + W*(l/2)*cosθ - T*l*cosθ = 0

T*l*(cosθ - sinθ) = W*(l/2)*cosθ

T = W*cosθ/2(cosθ - sinθ)

Dividing both the numerator and denominator by cosθ, we have:

T = [W*cosθ/cosθ]/2[(cosθ - sinθ)/cosθ] = W/2(1-tanθ)

(b) If T = 3W, then:

3W = W/2(1-tanθ),

Further simplification and rearrangement lead to:

1 - tanθ = 1/6

tanθ = 1 - (1/6) = 5/6

θ = tan^(-1) 5/6 = 39.81°

Answer:

 I = 1205.69 Lx

Explanation:

The irradiation or intensity of the solar radiation on the earth is maximum for the vertical fire, with a value I₀

          I = I₀ sin θ

in this case with the initial data we can calculate the initial irradiance

         I₀ = \frac{I}{sin  \ \theta }

         I₀ = 1600 /sin 53

         I₀ = 2003.42 lx

for when the angle is θ = 37º

         I = 2003.42 sin 37

         I = 1205.69 Lx
