Two ropes are connected to a steel cable that supports a hanging weight . (a) Draw a freebody diagram showing all of the forces acting at the knot that connects the two ropes to the steel cable. Based on your diagram, which of the two ropes will have the greater tension? (b) If the maximum tension either rope can sustain without breaking is 5000 N, determine the maximum value of the hanging weight that these ropes can safely support. Ignore the weight of the ropes and of the steel cable.
A body of weight w is attached by a string of length L, to a hook on a vertical wall. A horizontal force F acting on the body holds it at a distance d from the wall. Derive the equation, which gives the force F in terms of w, L, and d.

On her way to visit Grandmother, Red Riding Hood sat down to rest and placed her 1.20-kg basket of goodies beside her. A wolf came along, spotted the basket, and began to pull on the handle with a force of 6.40 N at an angle of 25° with respect to vertical. Red was not going to let go easily, so she pulled on the handle with a force of 13.5 N. If the net force on the basket is straight up, at what angle was Red Riding Hood pulling from the vertical? I was given the WRONG answer this morning! The force that Red applied was 13.5N NOT 12.2 N! Use 13.5 N! I use this service primarily to check my work. If the "experts" are using the wrong values, I question if they will use the right mathematical procedures if I really have a challenge!

A sanding block is being pushed up a vertical wall by a force F that is being applied at an angle of 0 = 26.8° to the vertical as shown in the diagram. The block is moving up the wall at a constant speed. The mass of the block is 0.534 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the wall is 0.885. Calculate the magnitude of the force F. To receive full marks, you must include a diagram showing the physical situation and your choice of coordinate system. F Newtons
Three forces act on particle A located at the origin of an x-y coordinate system. Force B acts at 140o from the positive x-axis, and force C acts at 15o from the positive x-axis. The weight acts down with a magnitude of W = 100 kN. Use the equations of equilibrium to determine the magnitudes of B and C such that particle A is in equilibrium. Using your FBD from problem 1) substitute the known weight and angles α and β into your equations, then solve them simultaneously to find the tensions in cables AC and BC . Fb= 117.92kn Fc= 93.507kn
