A long wooden post is suspended horizontally by a rope attached to the ceiling at distance Δx = 1.20 m from the end. A pylon supports the other end as shown below. The 4.85 m long post is uniform along its length and has a mass of 35.5-kg. A 10.0-kg mass is suspended at a distance Δx = 1.20 m from the other end.
(a) Find the tension in the rope.
N
(b) Find the force that the pylon exerts on the end of the
post.
Givem the diatance x = 1.2m, the length of the post L = 4.85m, mass of the post M = 35.5kg and the mass suspended m = 10kg. The forces acting on the system is shown below.
(a) For the system to be in equilibrium, the net torque acting on the system shouls be zero. Let T be the tension in the rope.Taking torque about the pylon, we get
So the tension in the rope is 363.36N.
(b) Similarly, taking torque about the point O, we get,
So the force that the pylon exerts on the end of the post is 182.54N.

A heavy rope with length L and mass M is attached to the ceiling and is allowed to hang freely. (a) Find an expression for the tension in the rope at a point a distance y from the bottom, and use this to show that the speed of transverse waves on the rope is independent of its mass and length but does depend on the distance y according to the equation ?=??. (b) If L = 3.0 m and the...
A mass m1=5.0 kg hangs suspended by a rope from an elevator ceiling. A second mass m2=5.0 kg hangs suspended by a rope from the bottom of mass m1. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.8 m/s in 0.80 s. The elevator travels with this constant speed for 5.0 s, undergoes a uniform negative acceleration for 1.5 s, and then comes to rest. Draw a FBD for each mass Find the tension in each rope...
A 3.8-m-long rope of mass 1.2 kg hangs from a ceiling. part A:What is the wave speed in the rope at the bottom end? Part B:What is the tension in the rope at the top end, where it is attached to the ceiling? Part C:What is the wave speed in the rope at the top end? Part D:It can be shown that the average wave speed in the rope is 1/2 sqrt(gL), where L is the length of the rope....
A loudspeaker of mass 25.0 kg is suspended a distance of h = 1.20 m below the ceiling by two cables that make equal angles with the ceiling. Each cable has a length of l = 2.50 m. (Figure 1) Part AWhat is the tension T in each of the cables? Use 9.80 m/s^2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.
