In a two-dimensional tug-of-war, Alex, Betty, and Charles pull horizontally on an automobile tire at the angles shown in the overhead view of Fig. 5-30.The tire remains stationary in spite of the three pulls.

Alex pulls with force FAof magnitude 200N , and Charles pulls with force Fcof magnitude 170N . Note that the direction of Fcis not given. What is the magnitude of Betty鈥檚 FB?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude of Betty鈥檚 force is 241N

Step by step solution

01

Given information:

FA=220NFC=170N

02

Significance of Newton’s second law of motion

The problem is based on Newton鈥檚 second law of motion. It states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.

Formula:

Fnet=ma 鈥(颈)

Where, m is the mass of object and is the acceleration of object

03

 Step 3: Determining the magnitude of Betty’s force. 

Since the tire remains stationary, according to the Newton鈥檚 second law, the net force is zero,

Free body diagram,

Fnet=FA+FB+FC=ma=0netforceiszerobecausetireremainsstationary

From the above free body diagram,

Fnet.x=Fccos-FAcos 鈥(颈颈)

= 0 鈥(iii)

Solving for FBfor localid="1660895724031" FA=220N,FC=170Nand=47, equation (ii) can be written as,

cos=FAcosFC=220Ncos47170N=0.88

Thus, =28.0

Substituting this value in equation (iii) we get,

FB=FAsin+FCsin=220Nsin47+170Nsin28=241N

Thus,FB=241N
