Question

2. Tomas is hanging from a tree limb, that is inclined at a 65° angle. The force

Answer 1

Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Were are told that the force

of gravity on Tomas is 57 N.

And it acts at an inclined angle of 65°

Thus;

The vertical component of the velocity is; F_y = 57 sin 65

While the horizontal component is;

F_x = 57 cos 65

Thus;

F_y = 51.66 N

F_x = 24.09 N

The net force will be;

F_net = √((F_y)² + (F_x)²)

F_net = √(51.66² + 24.09²)

F_net = √3249.0837

F_net = 57 N
