A sign hangs precariously from your prof's office door. Calculate the magnitude of the tension in string 1, if theta1 = 37.76°, theta2 = 58.35°, and the mass of the sign is 5.9 kg.
THE ONE PHYSICS PROBLEM I CAN'T FIGURE OUT! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: |
simple:
T1 = tension in string 1
assumed:
- the system is in equilibrium
- we are on planet earth
- g = gravitational constant ~9.8 [kg*m/s^2]
(5.9[kg] * g ) / sin(37.76°)= T1 |
