A block of mass M is suspended at rest by two strings attached to walls, as shown in the figure. The left string is horizontal with tension force T2 and and the right string with tension force T1 makes an angle e with the horizontal. T1 is measured to be 63 N, and e = 41.0°. What is the mass of the block, in kg? Use g = 10 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement. TI T: M

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one side or the other. Two students pull with force 196 N each to the light, four students pull with force 98 N each to the left, five students pull with force 62 N each to the left, three students pull with force 150 N each to the right, and one student pulls with force 250 N to the left. Assuming the positive direction to the tight, express the net pull on the knot in terms of the unit vector. How big is the net pull on the knot? In what direction?

Two men are pulling the barge as shown in the figure. The man on the lower side pulls it with a force of 58.17 N, at an angle of 34 degrees, while the man on the other side is pulling it at an angle of 45 degrees. The second man pulls the barge with a force of magnitude, F (in N). What should F be so that the net force on the barge is in the forward direction? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Two crates connected by a rope lie on a horizontal surface (Figure 1). Crate A has mass mA and crate B has mass mB. The coefficient of kinetic friction between each crate and the surface is μk. The crates are pulled to the right at constant velocity by a horizontal force F. In terms of mA, mB, and μk, calculate the magnitude of the force F. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables mA, mB, μk, and acceleration due to gravity g. In terms of mA, mB, and μk, calculate the tension in the rope connecting the blocks. Include the free-body diagram or diagrams you used to determine each answer.
