The drawing shows an A-shaped ladder. Both sides of the ladder are equal in length. This ladder is standing on a frictionless horizontal surface, and only the crossbar (which has a negligible mass) of the "A" keeps the ladder from collapsing. The ladder is uniform and has a mass of 19.8 kg. Determine the tension in the crossbar of the ladder. 30.0 4.00 m Crossbar 1.00 m Number Units the tolerance is +/-2%

You set up a Halloween prank by attaching a small board to a hinge above your front door. The far end of the board is held up by a cable that can be released by remote control. You place a spooky spider on the board that is dropped on unsuspecting trick-or-treaters when you release the cable. The drawing below shows the set-up. cable 40° Hinge 60 ст You use a board that is 60 cm long and the cable makes an angle of 40 degrees with the board when the board is held horizontally. You place the spider a distance of r = 37 cm from the hinge. The board has a mass of 2.2 kg and the spider has a mass of 1.6 kg. The hinge applies both a horizontal force and a vertical force. You will be asked to determine the direction of both of these forces (left, right, up, down). What is the magnitude of the tension in the cable in Newtons? T = What is the magnitude and direction of the horizontal force from the hinge? Enter a positive number for the magnitude. Fh = Direction ---Select--- What is the…

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.
