A monkey of mass m = 10.0 kg is holding on to two vines each of length l = 3.00 m. The vines form an angle with the horizontal of 40.0 degrees (see figure). The monkey is not moving and the vines are considered massless and not stretchable. Determine the magnitude of the tension in each vine. d. Now the monkey moves up by clinging up the two vines, causing their angle with the horizontal to become smaller. If each vine breaks at a tension larger than T = 100 N, what is the smallest angel the vines can have with the horizontal?
1 A person exercises the quadriceps as shown. The diagram on the right shows a model of the leg, where the person's lower leg of length L = 0.60 m is held at an angle 0₁ = 60° with respect to the horizontal. The quadriceps muscle exerts a force FM via the tendon that attaches to the tibia at a distance d = 0.10 m from the knee, in order to lift a weight of mass m₁ = 5.91 kg that is attached to the foot. The tendon makes an angle of 0₂ = 11.5° with respect to the tibia. 2 What is the force required to hold the weight at the position shown in the diagram? Assume the person's lower leg weighs 150 N and its centre of mass is located at a distance L/2 from the knee. Round your answer to the nearest Newton. FM M d- 02 01 m₁
A 4-m long, 150-kg steel beam is attached to a wall with one end connected to a hinge that allows the beam to rotate up and down. The other end of the beam is held in a horizontal position with a cable that makes a 27° angle with the beam and is attached to the wall (see (Figure 1)). a.What is the tension force that keeps this beam in static equilibrium? b. A mass of 75 kg is hung from the beam 3 meters away from the hinge (see (Figure 2)). Now what is the tension force that keeps this beam in static equilibrium? c.What is the vertical component of the force that the hinge exerts on the beam?
