A heavy crate is suspended from two ropes as it is lowered from a high shelf to the floor at a constant speed. One of the ropes makes an angle of 26.5 degrees with respect to the vertical and has a tension of 653 N, while the other makes an angle of 31.5 with respect to the vertical. What is the crate's mass in kg?

Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76
A 12.1 kgkg box sits on a horizontal table. A string with tension 30.6 NN pulls on the box to the right, but static friction between the box and the table prevents the box from moving. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the table is 0.43. What is the magnitude of the static friction force on the box?
A large wrecking ball is held in place by two light steel cables. If the mass m of the wrecking ball is 3620 kg, what are (a) the tension TB in the cable that makes an angle of 40 with the vertical and (b) the tension TA in the horizontal cable?
A block of weight w is suspended from a rope tied to two other ropes at point O. One rope ishorizontally attached to a wall and the other is fastened to the ceiling. The angle betweenceiling and the rope is 60°. What are the tensions in each of the ropes? Assume the weights ofthe ropes and the knots are negligible. If the weight of the block is 100 N, what is the tension inthe ceiling rope?
A box of bananas weighing 40.0 N rests on a horizontal surface.The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surfaceis 0.40, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. If the monkey applies a horizontal force of 18.0 N, what is the magnitude of the friction force and what is the box’s acceleration?

3 ducks are attached to each other by strings and are being pulled by a force of 9.5N. The duck at the front is 625g, the middle is 375g, and the back is 1150g. The coeficcient of friction is 0.15. What is the tension in the strings connecting the ducks?
A horizontal force of 680 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 269 kg crate. What is the acceleration of the crate if the 680N force maintained after the crate begins to move and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15?
A student's head is bent over her physics book. The head weighs P = 25.6 N and is supported by the muscle force Fm exerted by the neck extensor muscles and by the contact force Fc exerted at the atlantooccipital joint. Given that the magnitude of Fm is 60.0 N and is directed 35.0° below the horizontal. PN Find the magnitude of the contact force F. . |N
