* Kate joins Jim, Luis, and Adrienne in the rope-pulling exercise described in the previous two problems. This time, they tie four ropes to a ring. The three friends each pull on one rope, exerting the following forces:
so that the ring remains in equilibrium, (a) Construct a force diagram for the ring, (b) Use the first condition of equilibrium to write two equations that can be used to determine

- A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible?

(do not calculate using trigonometry) record the results. b) analytical: compute the magnitudes of fx and fy by using the component method (equations 3-3 and 3-4). record the results.arrow_forward

- Part A An object moves in a circular path at a constant speed. What is the relationship between the directions of the object's velocity and acceleration vectors? The velocity vector points toward the center of the circular path. The acceleration is zero. The velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular. The velocity and acceleration vectors point in opposite directions. The velocity and acceleration vectors point in the same direction. The velocity vector points in a direction tangent to the circular path. The acceleration is zero.

If the coefficient of maximum static friction between the rock and the ground is µ, and the mass of the hiker is mâ, what is the maximum mass of the friend, mc, that the rock can hold so the hikers can then make their way up over the ledge? Assume the rope is parallel to the ground and the point where the rope passes over the ledge is frictionless. mc = Juarrow_forwardPRINTER VERSION 4 ВАСК NEXT Chapter 11, Problem 026 Your answer is partially correct.
