A rope supporting a mass passes around four simple frictionless
pulleys at points A, B, C and D, and around two fixed drums at
points E and F. The mass exerts a force of 1000 N on the rope. The
radius of all pulleys and drums is 75 mm. If the coefficient of
friction between the rope and all the surfaces it contacts is 0.3,
what is the minimum force, P, necessary to hold the...
2. [2 pts) A pulley is hung from a ceiling by a rope. A block of weight W, is suspended by another rope that passes over the pulley and is attached to the wall. The rope fastened to the wall makes a right angle with the wall Neglect the weight of the rope. (a) Assuming the pulley's weight is negligible, find the tension in the rope from which the pulley hangs and the angle that the rope makes with the...
A 100 kg box is suspended from two ropes. The "left rope makes an angle of 20" degrees with the vertical, and the right rope makes an angle of 40 degrees. What is the tension (in Newtons) on the left rope?
A uniform bar 7.5 m long is held against a rough wall by a light rope as shown in the diagram. The pulley may be assumed to be frictionless, W = 140 N and the weight of the bar is w = 40 N. Find (a) the tension in the rope attached to the bar, and (b) the minimum coefficient of friction between the bar and the wall if the bar does not slip. There is no hinge connecting the...
A 10200-N shark is supported by a rope attached to a 3.40-m rod that can pivot at the base. A rod is attached to a pivot at the base of a wall on the left. The rod extends up and right at a 60.0° angle from the horizontal. A cable connected to the top end of the rod extends up and left at a 20.0° angle from the horizontal before connecting to the wall. A shark hangs from a rope at the top...
A rope is connected to two posts that are separated by a distance d. A person pulls the middle of the rope in a direction that is perpendicular to the line connecting the two posts from an overhead view. A) If the middle of the rope is deflected by a distance of x << d by the person pulling with a magnitude of force F, what is the tension in the rope? B) Find the tension in this rope when...
4. Two vertical ropes support a 20.0 ft long bar. Each rope is inset 5.00 ft from the ends of the bar. The bar is uniform and weighs 50.0 lb. A weight of unknown size hangs from the left end of the bar, and a 100 lb weight hangs from the right end of the bar. If the tension in the left-side rope is 80.0 lb, find both the weight of the left-side hanging weight and the tension in the...
A light rope is attached to a block with mass 3.40 kg that rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. The horizontal rope passes over a frictionless, massless pulley, and a block with mass m is suspended from the other end. When the blocks are released, the tension in the rope is 19.1 N . c. What is the acceleration of either block? Express your answer with the appropriate units. d. Find m. Express your answer with the appropriate units. e....
the answers are:
a. 0.24, current flows left to right
b. 0.24, current flows right to left
c. 0.41, current flows tight to left
d. 0.65, current flows left to right
e. 0.65, current flows right to left
A horizontal length of current-carrying wire is suspended from two identical flexible leads that are under tension due to the weight of the wire. The wire is oriented at right angles to a uniform magnetic field that has a magnitude of 3...
A light rope is attached to a block with mass 3.00 kg that rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. The horizontal rope passes over a frictionless, massless pulley, and a block with mass m is suspended from the other end. When the blocks are released, the tension in the rope is 15.3 N . part a) Draw free-body diagram for the 3.00-kg block. Assume block is moving to the right. Draw the vectors starting at a black dot. The location...
