Explanation:

acceleration = 8/3.2 = 2.5m/s² ( acceleration due to gravity = g ).

mass = 85 kg.

weight = mg = 85×2.5 = 212.5N .

hope this helps you.

You need to repair a gate on the farm. The gate weighs 100 kg and pivots as indicated. A small diagonal bar supports the gate an
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The force is  F = 3920 \ N

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

   From the question we are told that

          The weight of the gate is G  =  100\  kg

 

The vertical component of F is  F_y =  F\ sin  \theta

   From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have  

                W_g  * 2 - F_y  * 1 =  0

Where W_g  is the weight of the gate evaluated as

             W_g  =  m_g * g =  100 * 9.8 =  980 \ N

=>        980 * 2 - Fsin(30)  * 1 =  0

=>         F = \frac{1960}{sin(30)}

=>      F = 3920 \ N
