- A window washer is standing on a scaffold supported by a vertical rope at each end. The scaffold weighs 300 N and is 4.50 m long. What is the tension in each rope when the 600-N worker stands 1.30 m from one end? Make use of the situations in this scenario and tell us a story of your own that involves a similar type of static equilibrium. You may use approximate values to solve your own problem.arrow_forwardYou’re a highway safety engineer, and you’re asked to specify bolt sizes so the traffic signal shown in the Figure below won’t fall over. The figure indicates the masses and positions of the structure’s various parts. The structure is mounted with two bolts, located symmetrically about the vertical member’s centerline, as shown. What tension force must the left-hand bolt be capable of withstanding?arrow_forwardThe large quadriceps muscle in the upper leg terminates at its lower end in a tendon attached to the upper end of the tibia (see Figure a). The forces on the lower leg when the leg is extended are modeled as in Figure b, where T is the force of tension in the tendon, w is the force of gravity acting on the lower leg, and F is the force of gravity acting on the foot. Find T when the tendon is at an angle of 25.0° with the tibia, assuming that w = 29.0 N, F = 12.3 N, and the leg is extended at an angle ? of 40.0° with the vertical. Assume that the center of gravity of the lower leg is at its center and that the tendon attaches to the lower leg at a point one-fifth of the way down the leg. (Give the magnitude.)arrow_forward
