A sign is to be hung from the end of a thin pole, and the pole supported by a single cable. Your design firm brainstorms the six scenarios shown below. In scenarios A, B, and D, the cable is attached halfway between the midpoint and end of the pole. In C, the cable is attached to the mid-point of the pole. In E and F, the cable is attached to the end of the pole. Part A Rank the design scenarios (A through F) on the basis of the tension in the supporting cable. Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

17 kg uniform store sign is held from a uniform horizontal beam as shown. There is a cable attached to the right edge of the beam and is secured to the wall, 250 cm above where the beam meets the wall. The sign is symmetrically suspended by two cords, the left cord being 80 cm from the wall, and the cord on the right being at the right edge of the beam, 200 cm from the wall. a. What is the tension in the left and right cords that hold the sign? b. What is the tension in the cable? c. What is the horizontal component of the force that the wall exerts on the beam?
Directions: Assume, unless otherwise specified, that all numbers have at least 3 significant figures. F (N) Students collect data, see graph, for the force involved in stretching a rubber band. The data is well fit by the equation F = 33.65 x0.4971, 12 10 where F is in newtons and x is in meters. One end of the rubber band is attached to a stationary vertical rod and the other end to a 0.3 kg mass. The mass rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The mass is pulled back such that the rubber band is stretched by 0.8 m from its unstretched length and then released from rest. 4. x (m) 0,1 0.02 0.04 0.06 0.08 A. What is the speed of the mass after it has traveled 0.4 m? B. What is the maximum speed of the object?
A purple beam is hinged to a wall to hold up a blue sign. The beam has a mass of mp = 6.2 kg and the sign has a mass of mg = 17.3 kg. The length of the beam is L = 2.55 m. The sign is attached at the very end of the beam, but the horizontal wire holding up the beam is attached 2/3 of the way to the end of the beam. The angle the wire makes with the beam is 0 = 34.2°.
A horizontal 12.5 kg beam 2.2 m long is attached to the wall by a hinge at its left end. A cable is connected from the right end of the beam to the wall, at an angle of 26 ° above the beam, as shown below. A 60 kg sign is hung 1.7 m from the left end of the beam. Part A Find the tension in the cable. Part B Find the horizontal force exerted on the wall by the hinge. Part C Find the vertical force exerted on the wall by the hinge
A young work crew is trying to quickly finish some touch‑up painting to complete a job. Rather than setting up a secure work area, they decide to try a shortcut. Worker A will hold the far end of a 8.00 m work plank which weighs 115 N and is secured with a hinge on the opposite end. Worker B will stand on the plank 4.11 m from worker A. Worker B also brings up his paint can, ?c=3.54 kg, which he places 0.280 m from where he is standing on the plank (between the two workers). Worker A unfortunately needs to supply 496 N of force to hold the end of the plank. How much does worker B weigh? The acceleration due to gravity is ?=9.81 m/s2.
The uniform seesaw shown below is balanced on a fulcrum located d1 = 3.5m from the left end. The bigger boy on the left end has a mass m1 =75 kg. The smaller boy on the right end has a mass of m2 = 55 kg and is a distance d2 = 4.5 m from the fulcrum. The mass of the board is mb. Draw all forces acting on the seesaw board showing their directions and locations. Where would you draw the weight of the board? Identify and show the direction of rotations caused by the torques provided by all forces about the fulcrum. If the seesaw is in static equilibrium, write down the two conditions of static equilibrium symbolically using the forces and distances in the figure. Solve for the mass of the board. Calculate the force of fulcrum on the board.

You are on a pirate ship and being forced to walk the plank. You are standing at the point marked C. The plank is nailed onto the deck at point A, and rests on the support 0.75 m away from A. The center of mass of the uniform plank is located at point B. Your mass is 70 kg and the mass of the plank is 40 kg. Part A What is the minimum downward force the nails must exert on the plank to hold it in place? Express your answer using two significant figures. 10 ΑΣΦΑ ? N 1 0.75 m 3.0 m- 1.5m B jc
A painter stands on a uniform horizontal beam of length L = 6.0 m that is held in equilibrium by support cables attached to the roof as shown in Figure 3. The beam has a weight Wb = 250.0 N and the tensions on the left and the right ends are measured to be Tl = 360.0 N and Tl = 200.0 N respectively. A. Calculate the weight of the painter Wp , and Wb. the distance x where the painter is standing.
