A 12 ft ladder that weighs 50lb rests against a frictionless wall at a point 10ft above the ground. How much force does the ladder exert (a) on the ground and (b) on the wall?
A farmer is trying to bring down a couple of bags of cattle feed (mass 70kg) from the 2nd floor (height 2.5m) to the bottom. To do this, he will use a disc pulley to lower the bags down. On one end, a counterweight (mass 55kg) is utilized. The counterweight will start on the ground with the rope attached. When the cattle feed bags are pushed off the edge of the 2nd floor, they will fall down, and the counterweight will be raised up.
Additional Givens:
Radius of the disc pulley: 0.75m
Mass of the disc pulley: 4kg
Acceleration of gravity: 10 m/s^2
Question: How fast will the bags of cattle feed be falling the instant before they hit the ground?

- We can model a pine tree in the forest as having a compact canopy at the top of a relatively bare trunk. Wind blowing on the top of the tree exerts a horizontal force, and thus a torque that can topple the tree if there is no opposing torque. Suppose a tree’s canopy presents an area of 9.0 m2 to the wind centered at a height of 7.0 m above the ground. (These are reasonable values for forest trees.) If the wind blows at 6.5 m/s: a. What is the magnitude of the drag force of the wind on the canopy? Assume a drag coefficient of 0.50.b. What torque does this force exert on the tree, measured about the point where the trunk meets the ground?arrow_forwardA house painter is standing on a uniform, horizontal platform that isheld in equilibrium by two cables attached to supports on the roof.The painter has a mass of 75.0 kg and the mass of the platform is 20.0kg.

The platform you and your partner are using to get to the windows is a meter wide and four meters long. You know from hauling the platform out of your truck countless times that it has a mass of 70 kg. It is supported by two cables, one at each end, mounted on-center to prevent the platform from tipping over as it is pulled up the side of the building at a constant speed. If you (mass of 55 kg) are standing on the platform 1 meter from one cable while your partner (mass of 87 kg) is 1.3 meters from the other cable and both of you are half a meter from the side, what is the tension in each cable?
