A 200 N sign hangs from the middle of a cable between two buildings. The ends of each cable are attached to each building at the same height. The cable cannot exceed 1500 N without breaking. Find the minimum angle that the cable can make from the horizontal.
You are working in an ice skating rink and have been asked to hang a new banner on the wall. Your friend is helping you so that the ladder does not collapse by exerting a force F_AL at an angle ϕ relative to the horizontal. The ladder has a length L and makes an angle of θ with respect to the vertical wall. You have a mass, m_Y, and are a horizontal distance x from the wall. The ladder has a mass of m_L. Because the wall is slick, and the ice on the floor is slick, the frictional forces acting on the ladder are negligible. Find a formula for the magnitude of the force that your friend must exert to keep the ladder from falling, in terms of the following variables: x,L,m_Y,m_L,θ,ϕ. Then use the following values to get a number for the magnitude of F_AL. θ = 30.3 degrees ϕ = 23.028 degrees x = 1.491 meters L = 7.1 meters m_Y = 86.0 kg m_L = 42.14 kg Find the magnitudes of: F_AL, normal force of the wall on the ladder (N_WL), and normal force of the floor on the ladder (N_FL).

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?

Problem A block of mass m is placed on a rough surface inclined relative to the horizontal. The incline angle is increased until the block start to move. Show that you can obtain the coefficient of static friction us by measuring the critical angle 8 where slipping occurs. Solution Just before slipping, we say that the block is still at rest, so the net force on the x-axis is: EF=mg Evaluating, we get: = mg But the frictional force is expressed as the product of coefficient and the normal force so. Hs = mg For an inclined plane. The normal force is n=mg Then. Ps=mg cos(e)
Problem 1: A 2.80kg block is placed on a rough (us=0.540) incline that makes an angle of 52.0° with respect to the horizontal. A pushing force horizontal to the ground is applied to the top of the block (This would make the force have an angle of 52.0° below the surface of the inclined plane, up the plane) to make the block stationary on the plane. What is the minimum pushing force needed to keep the block stationary on the plane? (10 points)
