A makeshift swing is constructed by making a loop in one end of a rope and tying the other end to a tree limb. A child is sitting in the loop with the rope hanging vertically when the child’s father pulls on the child with a horizontal force and displaces the child to one side. Just before the child is released from rest, the rope makes an angle of 15 with the vertical and the tension in the rope is 280 N. (a) How much does the child weigh? (b) What is the magnitude of the (horizontal) force of the father on the child just before the child is released? (c) If the maximum horizontal force the father can exert on the child is 93 N, what is the maximum angle with the vertical the rope can make while the father is pulling horizontally?
Bank robbers have pushed a 1000 kg safe to a third-story floor-toceiling window. They plan to break the window and lower the safe 10.0 m to their truck. Not being too clever, they stack up 500 kg of furniture, tie a rope between the safe and the furniture, and place the rope over a pulley. Then they push the safe out of the window. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the furniture and the floor is 0.5. The rope would break if the force on it exceeds 5000 N. a) Does the rope break? b) What is the acceleration of the safe? c) What is the safe’s speed when it hits the truck?

- Review. The mass of a car is 1 500 kg. The shape of the cars body is such that its aerodynamic drag coefficient is D = 0.330 and its frontal area is 2.50 m2. Assuming the drag force is proportional to 2 and ignoring other sources of friction, calculate the power required to maintain a speed of 100 km/h as the car climbs a long hill sloping at 3.20.arrow_forwardA One end of a metal rod of weight Fg and length L presses against a corner between a wall and the floor (Fig. P14.64).
