You have a rope that has a mass of 0.2 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 5 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building. Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building. Joulesarrow_forward

While standing 1.5 m from the left edge of the beam, you silently hope that the cables are strong enough to hold the weight of the beam, the box, and you! The masses of the beam and you are 10 kg and 70 kg, respectively. The cables are rated for a tension of 1000 N. Do the cables hold? In other words, what is the tension in each cable? Hint: you can assume the box is sitting on the very end of the beam. 30° 20° 4.0 marrow_forward4. A spider builds its web in a window frame that is lying on the ground.
