Stretched string

A stretched string is a wire which is made up of any metal that must have a larger length compared to its thickness. The ends of the wire are fixed, and when they oscillate or are plucked, it produces two reflected transverse waves of the same frequency and same amplitude. The waves or pulses are traveling in alternate directions and superimpose with one another. This waveform is named standing or stationary waves.

To get up on the roof, a person (mass 70.0 kg) places a 6.00-m aluminum ladder (mass 10.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of the ladder 2.00 m from the house. The ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3 m from the bottom. What are the magnitudes of the forces on the ladder at the top and bottom?

Bruce Lee was famous for breaking concrete blocks with a single karate chop. From slow-motion video, the speed of his 1.50-kg hand descending on a block was estimated to be 15.0 m/s, which decreased to a speed of 0.500 m/s in the 2.50 103 s during which his hand made contact with and broke through the block. The maximum shear stress a concrete block can be subjected to before breaking is 9.50 105 N/m2. a. What was the force exerted by Lees hand on the block? b. If a typical concrete block broken by Lee was 3.00 cm thick and 15.2 cm wide, what is the shear stress experienced by the concrete block? c. Will the concrete block succumb to Lees karate chop?
An object is being weighed using an unequal-arm balance (Fig. P14.76). When the object is in the left pan, a downward force of 3.0 N must be exerted on the right pan to balance the gravitational force on the object. When the object is in the right pan, a downward force of 2.0 N must be exerted on the left pan to balance the gravitational force on the object. Determine the magnitude of the gravitational force on the object. FIGURE P14.76
A block of mass m1 = 20.0 kg is connected to a block of mass m2 = 30.0 kg by a massless string that passes over a light, frictionless pulley. The 30.0-kg block is connected to a spring that has negligible mass and a force constant of k = 250 N/m as shown in Figure P7.73. The spring is un-stretched when the system is as shown in the figure, and the incline is frictionless. The 20.0-kg block is pulled a distance h = 20.0 cm down the incline of angle = 40.0 (so that the 30.0-kg block is 40.0 cm above the floor) and released from rest. Find the speed of each block when the 30.0-kg block is 20.0 cm above the floor (that is, when the spring is unstretched). Figure P7.73

Write an equation for the motion of the hanging mass after the collision. Assume air resistance is negligible.
Hanging from the ceiling over a baby bed, well out of baby’s reach, is a string with plastic shapes, as shown here. The string is taut (there is no slack), as shown by the straight segments. Each plastic shape has the same mass m , and they are equally spaced by a distance d , as shown. The angles labeled describe the angle formed by the end of the string and the ceiling at each end. The center length of sting is horizontal. The remaining two segments each form an angle with the horizontal, labeled . Let T1 be the tension in the leftmost section of the string, T2 , be the tension in the section adjacent to it, and T3 be the tension in the horizontal segment.
