QUESTION 11

  1. This is a long question. You must upload your FULL written answer. Also type in the answer of (a) in the space provided.

    The floodlight in a park weighs 20 kg and is supported by a cable and horizontal beam as shown in the figure below. Assume that the beam is massless. The angle between the beam and cable is 24 degrees.

    a) Calculate the tension in the cable.

    b) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the horizontal and vertical forces exerted by the beam on the pole.

    Note: Ignore the angle in the figure and use the angle given to you in the question.

This is a long question. You must upload your FULL written answer. Also type in the answer of (b) in the space provided. A sound wave travels on a steel wire that has a length of 0.98 m, mass per unit length of  0.0034 kg/m and is under a tension of 86 N. The wire has a cross-sectional area 0.021 m3 and a density of 7,629 kg/m3. The Young's modulus of the wire is given as 300,308,879 Pa. Given: speed of...

A 10.0 metre long horizontal steel bar with a mass of 46 kg, is pivoted at a vertical wall and supported by a cable that makes an angle of 25 degrees to the bar. The cable is attached to the end of the bar, at the opposite end of the bar to the wall, and is anchored on the wall above the pivot point. (a) Sketch a force diagram for this situation, and define all the forces acting on the...

A 560-N uniform rectangular sign 4.00 m wide and 3.00 m high is suspended from a horizontal, 6.00-m-long, uniform, 120-N rod as indicated in the figure below. The left end of the rod is supported by a hinge and the right end is supported by a thin cable making a 30.0° angle with the vertical. (Assume the cable is connected to the very end of the 6.00-m-long rod, and that there are 2.00 m separating the wall from the sign.)...

A hungry bear weighing 735 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of goodies hanging at the end of the beam (see the figure below). The beam is uniform, weighs 200 N, and is 5.00 m long, and it is supported by a wire at an angle of θ = 60.0°. The basket weighs 80.0 N. A horizontal plank is attached at the left end to a vertical wall. A rod with a pulley...

1. For a stationary ball of mass m = 0.200 kg hanging from a massless string, draw arrows (click on the “Shapes” tab) showing the forces acting on the ball (lengths can be arbitrary, but get the relative lengths of each force roughly correct). For this case of zero acceleration, use Newton’s 2nd law to find the magnitude of the tension force in the string, in units of Newtons. Since we will be considering motion in the horizontal xy plane,...

Two masses are connected to one another with a massless rope that passes over a massless and frictionless pulley as shown in the figure below. When the two mass system is released from rest, the hanging mass m2 = 31.5 kg accelerates upward at a rate of 2.3 m/s2. The coefficient of kinetic friction between m1 and the incline is 0.08, and the angle of inclination of the ramp is 57 degrees. For the entirety of this problem, air resistance...

12. Through what angle in degrees does a 31 rpm record turn in 0.27 s 13. Starting from rest, the same torque is applied to a solid sphere and a hollow sphere. Both spheres have the same size and mass, and both are rotating about their centers. After some time has elapsed, which sphere will be rotating faster? answer choices: a. hollow sphere b. They will be rotating equally fast c. solid sphere 14. In movies, it often happens that...
