A force F→ of magnitude 10 N acts on a uniform massless rod as shown below. The rod is connected to a pivot on the bottom left and is oriented θ = 30∘ above the horizontal. The force is oriented at an angle of ϕ = 10∘ from the vertical. What is the torque about the given pivot point? Drawing is not to scale. The horizontal distance between the pivot and the force is 0.50 m. (Ignore the 0.25 m distance).

(a) The fishing pole in the figure below makes an angle of 20.0∘ with the horizontal. What is the torque exerted by the fish about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through the angler's hand if the fish pulls on the fishing line with a force F→ = 110 N at an angle 37.0∘ below the horizontal? The force is applied at a point L = 2.10 m from the angler's hands. (Enter the magnitude in N⋅m, accurate to at least the nearest integer. ) (i) (b) What If? To reel in the fish, the angler now pulls back on the fishing rod, increasing the angle it makes with the horizontal to 39.5∘. If the fish still applies the same force in the same direction, what is the increase in the torque exerted by the fish about an axis perpendicular to the page and passing through the angler's hand? (Enter the magnitude in N⋅m.) N⋅m

In the figure, a T-bar ski tow pulls a skier up a hill inclined at 10∘ above horizontal. The skier starts from rest and is pulled by a cable that exerts a tension T at an angle of 30∘ above the surface of the hill. The mass of the skier is 60 kg and the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the snow is 0.18. What is the maximum tension in the cable (in N) if the starting acceleration is not to exceed 4.90 m/s2?

A woman at an airport is towing her 20.0 kg suitcase at constant speed by pulling on a strap at an angle of 30∘ above the horizontal. The friction coefficient between the wheels of the suitcase and the floor is 0.5 and the woman pulls on the strap with a 35.0 N force. (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the suitcase (b) What is the magnitude of the normal force that the ground exerts on the suitcase? Hint: Use Newton's Second Law and decompose forces. (c) What is the friction force acting on the suitcase?
