A newly planted tree is supported against the wind by a rope tied to a stake in the ground, as shown in the figure below. The force of the wind, though distributed over the tree, is equivalent to a single force F, as shown in the figure. Find the tension in the rope. Assume that neither the tree's weight nor the force of the ground on the tree's roots produces any significant torque about point O. (Let F = 117 N, D = 2.06 m and d = 1.40 m.) angle: 37 degrees
considering equilibrium of torque about root
117 * 2.06 = T sin 37* 1.4
T = 286.06 N
==========
Comment in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. Goodluck

A support rope is tied to a tree at a height of 8.6 m above the ground. With a wind blowing from the left, the magnitude of the tension required in the rope to keep the tree stationary is 2.80*102 N, and the torque about point P due to the tension has a magnitude of 1.80*103N.m. Determine the angle between the rope and the tree trunk.
A tree contractor has been hired by a homeowner to remove a damaged tree from a previous storm. The top of the tree broke off leaving the trunk left in the ground. The two arborists will remove the tree by attaching a rope near the top and cutting the base close to the ground. The scenario is shown in the figure below. If the arborist pulls on the rope with a force of magnitude F = 38.5 N calculate the...

9) A beam of mass 16 kg and length 1.2 m is supported in two ways: at the wall with a hinge, and by a rope tied to its other end at an angle θ = 34◦ , as Figure 3 shows. At the hinge the wall exerts on the beam a force F of unknown direction and magnitude (shown as a dashed arrow). a) Write three equilibrium equations: for rotation around the hinge (balancing torques), and for translation in...
A. Issues [1] In addition to damages for one year's notice period, can a trial judge award significant damages for the mere fact of an employee's dismissal, or for the stigma that that dismissal brings? Or for the employer thereafter competing with the ex-employee for the clients, before the ex-employee has got a new job? B. Basic Facts [2] This is an appeal from 2009 ABQB 591 (CanLII), 473 A.R. 254. [3] Usually a judgment recites facts before law. But...
