Question
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 =.

- Three main forces that act on the patella, and are shown on the diagram below. These forces are the quadriceps muscle force (FQ), the patella ligament force (FPL), and the patellofemoral joint reaction force (FPF). The angles a and ẞ are with respect to a line that is perpendicular to FPF. Assuming a = 10°, ẞ = 30°, and FQ = 4000 N, use the equations for static equilibrium to calculate the FPL in Newtons.
