A man is attempting to lift a crate using a two part pulley system as shown in the image. The crate has mass m2 = 53 kg, and the man has m1 = 75 kg. He pulls downward on the rope with a force of magnitude F = 659 N. The pulleys are massless and frictionless. 1.) what is the magnitude of the tension force T in newtons? 2.) what is the blocks acceleration in m/s^2?

A 853 N magician (note: this is weight, not mass) is freeing himself from some shackles while suspended above a swimming pool filled with alligators. Two ropes are suspending the magician. The left rope makes an angle of 42 above the horizontal and points up and to the left. The right rope makes an angle of 78 above the horizontal and points up and to the right. Calculate the tension in the left rope, in N. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 10.5432)
A bag of cement weighing 525 N hangs in equilibrium from three wires as suggested in the figure below. Two of the wires make angles ?1 = 61.0° and ?2 = 42.0° with the horizontal. Assuming the system is in equilibrium, find the tensions T1, T2, and T3 in the wires. T1 = N T2 = N T3 =.

A warehouse worker pushes a crate along the floor, as shown in the figure (Figure 1), by a force of 19 NN that points downward at an angle of 45 degrees below the horizontal. Find the horizontal component of the push. Your answer should be positive if the force is to the right, negative if the force is to the left. Express your answer in newtons. Find the vertical component of the push. Your answer should be positive if the force is upward, negative if the force is downward. Express your answer in newtons.
