Three dogs (Spot, Fido, and Steinberg) are pulling on a chew toy. The chew toy is experiencing no acceleration. Spot is pulling
quester [9]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the force applied by Steinberg are approximately 15.192 newtons and 126.704º.

Explanation:

The chew toy is at equilibrium and experimenting three forces from three distinct dogs. The Free Body Diagram depicting the system is attached below. By Newton's Laws we construct the following equations of equilibrium: (<em>Sp</em> is for Spot, <em>F</em> is for Fido and <em>St</em> is for Steinberg) All forces and angles are measured in newtons and sexagesimal degrees, respectively:

\Sigma F_{x} = F_{F}\cdot \cos \theta_{F} + F_{St,x} = 0 (1)

\Sigma F_{y} = F_{F}\cdot \sin \theta_{F}-F_{Sp}+F_{St,y} = 0 (2)

If we know that F_{F} = 20\,N, F_{Sp} = 30\,N and \theta_{F} = 63^{\circ}, then the components of the force done by Steinberg on the chewing toy is:

F_{St,x} = -F_{F}\cdot \cos \theta_{F}

F_{St,x} = -(20\,N)\cdot \cos 63^{\circ}

F_{St, x} = -9.080\,N

F_{St,y} = F_{Sp}-F_{F}\cdot \sin \theta_{F}

F_{St,y} = 30\,N-(20\,N)\cdot \sin 63^{\circ}

F_{St, y} = 12.180\,N

The magnitud of the force is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

F_{St} = \sqrt{F_{St,x}^{2}+F_{St,y}^{2}}

F_{St} =\sqrt{(-9.080\,N)^{2}+(12.180\,N)^{2}}

F_{St} \approx 15.192\,N

Since the direction of this force is in the 3rd Quadrant on Cartesian plane, we determine the direction of the force with respect to the eastern semiaxis:

\theta_{St} = 180^{\circ} + \tan^{-1} \left(\frac{F_{St,y}}{F_{St,x}}\right)

\theta_{St} = 180^{\circ} + \tan^{-1} \left(\frac{12.180\,N}{-9.080\,N}\right)

\theta_{St} \approx 126.704^{\circ}

The magnitude and direction of the force applied by Steinberg are approximately 15.192 newtons and 126.704º.

A block is held at rest against a wall by a force of magnitude F exerted at an angle theta from the horizontal, as shown in the
wel

Answers:

B.) F cos\theta=F_{n}

C.) F sin\theta=F_{g} \pm F_{f}

Explanation:

The image attached shows the way the force F is acting on the block. Now, if we draw a free body diagram of the situation and write the equations for the Net Force in X and Y, we will have the following:

Net Force in X:

-F_{n}+F cos\theta=0 (1)

Where:

F_{n} is the Normal force

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the block

\theta is the angle

Net Force in Y:

F sin\theta \pm F_{f}-F_{g}=0 (2)

Where:

F_{f} is the Friction force (it is expresed with the \pm sign because this force may be up or down, we cannot know because the block is at rest)

F_{g} is the gravity force

Rewrittin (1):

F cos\theta=F_{n} (3) This is according to option B

Rewritting (2):

F sin\theta=F_{g}\pm F_{f} (3) This is according to option C
