The tension on each segment of the clothesline is :  110 N

<u>Given data : </u>

mass of object = 100 n  = 10 kg

Horizontal distance of clothesline = 4 m

middle of clothesline sag s by : 1m

<h3 /><h3>Determine the tension on each segment of clothesline</h3>

<u>First step</u> : calculate the horizontal angle made by the sagging

β = arctan ( 1 m / 2m )  ----- ( 1 )

  = arctan ( 0.5 )

  ≈ 26.57°

Note : Tension in th y axis ( Ty ) = Tsinβ

Therefore :

Tension on each segment can be calculated using the formula below

2Tsinβ - mg = 0

solve for T

T = mg / 2sinβ

  = ( 10 * 9.8 ) / 2 * sin 26.57°

  = 98 / 0.89

  = 110 N

Hence we can conclude that the tension on each segment of the clothesline is : 110 N

For the rectangle find the coordinates of p without using any new variables.
Darya [45]

The coordinates of p without using any new variables are; (a, b).

<h3>Finding Rectangle Coordinates</h3>

From the properties of a rectangle, we know that;

  • each of its angle is a right angle.
  • each side of the rectangle is perpendicular to its adjacent side.
  • the distance of a point from a line is the length of the perpendicular drawn from the point to the line.

From the rectangle image attached, we can see that;

Point P is at a distance of b units from x-axis and a units from y-axis.

Thus, the coordinates of Point P is (a, b)
