A block having a mass of m = 19.5 kg is suspended via two cables as shown in the figure. The angles shown in the figure are as follows: a = 15° and B = 35°. We will label the tension in Cable 1 as T1, and the tension in Cable 2 as T2. Solve for T1 and T2

A Block Having A Mass Of M 195 Kg Is Suspended Via Two Cables As Shown In The Figure The Angles Shown In The Figure Are As Follows A 15 And B 35 We Will Label T class=

Sagot :

We will have the next diagram

Then we can sum the forces in x and sum the forces in y

Forces in x

[tex]\sum ^{}_{}F_x=-T_1\sin (\alpha)+T_2\cos (\beta)=0[/tex][tex]\sum ^{}_{}F_x=-T_1\sin (15)+T_2\cos (35)=0[/tex]

Forces in y

[tex]\sum ^{}_{}F_y=T_1\cos (\alpha)+T_2\sin (\beta)=mg[/tex][tex]\sum ^{}_{}F_y=T_1\cos (15)+T_2\sin (35)=19.5(9.8)[/tex]

We simplify the equations found and we found the next system of equation

[tex]\begin{gathered} -T_1\sin (15)+T_2\cos (35)=0 \\ T_1\cos (15)+T_2\sin (35)=191.1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

then we isolate the T2 of the first equation

[tex]T_2=\frac{T_1\sin(15)}{\cos(35)}[/tex]

We substitute the equation above in the second equation

[tex]T_1\cos (15)+(\frac{T_1\sin(15)}{\cos(35)})\sin (35)=191.1[/tex]

we simplify

[tex]T_1(\cos (15)+\frac{\sin (15)\sin (35)}{\cos (35)})=191.1[/tex][tex]T_1(1.147)=191.1[/tex]

We isolate the T1

[tex]T_1=\frac{191.1}{1.147^{}}=166.6N[/tex]

then we can substitute the value we found in T1 in the euation with T2 isolate

[tex]T_2=\frac{(166.6)_{}\sin (15)}{\cos (35)}=52.54N[/tex]
