A disabled automobile is pulled by means of two ropes as shown. The tension in rope AB is 1.200 kN, and the angle α is 25∘. The resultant of the two forces applied at A is directed along the axis of the automobile. Using trigonometry, determine the tension in rope AC. (Round the final answer to three decimal places.) The tension in the rope AC is kN.

The figure below shows a sketch a box of mass m being pulled to the right at by a force F at an angle θ = 30∘. a) Draw a free-body diagram of forces on the box in the space to the right. Show both horizontal and vertical forces. Include friction. b) Now define a set of x−y axes (show on your fbd) in the usual fashion (horizontal and vertical) c) RESOLVE INTO COMPONENTS any vectors that are not already in the x or y direction. Show and label your components d) Based on your fbd, write two F = ma type equations, one for x and one for y. e) Solve the y equation for the normal force. Put a box around it. f) Solve the x equation for the acceleration α. Put a box around it. g) Plug and chug to get a numbers for the normal force and the acceleration. Use F = 120 N, m = 20 kg, and a frictional force of 34 N. Box your answers.

Multiple Concept Example 9 reviews the concepts that play a role in this problem. As an aid in working this problem, consult Concept Simulation 1.1. Two forces are applied to a tree stump to pull it out of the ground. Force F→ A has a magnitude of 1820 newtons (N) and points 38.0∘ south of east, while force F→ B has a magnitude of 2760 N and points due south. Using the component method, find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the resultant force F→A + F→ B that is applied to the stump. Specify the direction as a positive angle with respect to due east. (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
