Draw free-body diagrams for these situations. Be sure to draw your coordinate axes and draw separate FBDs for everything in the system and to write out the ? F = m a equations in all relevant dimensions.
A locomotive pulls a train of 3 boxcars up a hill at angle ? up from horizontal . Draw FBDs for the locomotive and each of the boxcars.
The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper end as shown in (Figure 1). Each arm supports a seat suspended from a 5.00-mm-long rod, the upper end of which is fastened to the arm at a point RRR = 1.80 mm from the central shaft.
a)Make a free-body diagram of the seat, including the person in it. Draw the force vectors with their tails starting from the center of the dot. The location and orientation of your vectors will be graded. The exact length of your vectors will not be graded.
b)Find the time of one revolution of the swing if the rod supporting the seat makes an angle of θθtheta = 32.0 ∘with the vertical.
Draw a diagram of the situation and label the givens in the problem: The cart's mass and the hanger's mass. Also label the direction of the cart and hanger's acceleration.
Draw two force diagrams. One for the cart and one for the hanger. You can treat the track as frictionless. Remember that the force in the string will be the same throughout the entire string.
Then define an x-y coordinate system and find the x and y components of the forces in your diagrams.
