Question
The carabiner below has a load rating of 22kN on it's long axis. Is it strong enough to lift a 2021 toyota tacoma? Discuss and show your work.
Transcribed Image Text:The image depicts a detailed illustration of a carabiner, commonly used in climbing and safety applications. The carabiner is designed with a locking mechanism, indicated by the pink rotating barrel, which enhances safety by preventing accidental opening.
On the spine of the carabiner, three key strength ratings are marked:
1. **22 kN**: This is the strength rating along the major axis (the spine), indicating the carabiner can withstand a force of 22 kilonewtons when loaded in this direction.
2. **10 kN**: This rating is for the carabiner when loaded along the minor axis (width-wise), suggesting it can withstand a force of 10 kilonewtons.
3. **8 kN**: This rating is for the carabiner when the gate is open, indicating it can handle a force of 8 kilonewtons in such a scenario.
These ratings are critical for ensuring the carabiner is used safely within its limits, reflecting the maximum forces the carabiner can endure depending on how it's engaged or loaded.
