A sign is hung from a 16.8 kg horizontal boom. The boom is held in place by a cord that extends from above the wall, meeting the end of the boom at an angle of 26.1 degrees. If the sign is 18.8 kg and is hung from a point 3/4 of the length from the wall, what is the tension in the cord?

A horizontal wire is hung from the ceiling of a room by two massless strings. The wire has a length of 0.22 m and a mass of 0.009 kg. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.075 T is directed from the ceiling to the floor. When a current of I = 31 A exists in the wire, the wire swings upward and, at equilibrium, makes an angle φ with respect to the vertical, as the drawing shows. Find (a) the...
