To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to dynamic equilibrium. The vertical component of the tension is equivalent to the centripetal Force while the horizontal component of the tension is equivalent to the weight, therefore we will have the two equations,
Our values are,
Therefore if we divide both equation we have,
Replacing,
Therefore the angle required is 15.18°
Answer:
because the muscles press together and prevent the joint from bending any further
The density is 81.4 g/m3. Before you start plugging numbers into the density formula (D=M/V), you should convert 104 kg to grams, which ends up being 104,000 grams. Then you can plug in the 104,000 grams and 1,278 m3 into the formula. When you divide the mass by the volume, you get a really long decimal, which you can round to 81.4 g/m3, or whatever place your teacher wants you to round to.
