A light string has its ends tied to two walls separated by a distance equal to three-fifths the length of the string as shown in the figure. An 18 kg mass is suspended from the center of the string, applying a tension in the string. What is the tension in the two strings of length L 2 tied to the wall? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of N
theta = arccos[(3L/10) / (L/2)]
theta = 53.13o
The vertical components of the tension (two strings) = the weight of the block.
2*T*sin(53.13) = (18)(9.8)
T = 110.25 N

Hex nuts A and C are tied to a string at its two free ends and hex nut B is tied between the two. The string is held vertically over a pan with nut A closest to the pan.After the string is released onto the pan, the second clang is heard 0.5 seconds after the first clang and third clang is heard 0.5 seconds after the second clang. From this, one can conclude that Select one: a. distance AB< distance...
