The three ropes inFIGUREEX6.2are tied to a small, very light ring. Two of the ropes are anchored to walls at right angles, and the third rope pulls as shown. What are T1and T2, the magnitudes of the tension forces in the first two ropes?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Magnitude of the tensionT1=86.6N

Magnitude of the tension T2=50N

Step by step solution

01

Tension : 

The pulling force transferred axially by a string, cable, chain, or similar item, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object is known as tension.

02

Magnitude of the tension T1 :

The figure depicts a light ring attached by three ropes, two of which are fixed to the walls at right angles.

Using Newton's second law for equilibrium condition in the horizontal direction,

Fx=0

Resolving the components of tension in the ropes in x-direction,

-T1+T3cos=0

The tension in the first rope =T1

The tension in the third rope =T3

The angle made by the third rope with the positive x-axis =

Substitute 100Nfor T3and 30for ,

-T1+100Ncos30=0T1=100N0.866=86.6N

Hence, the magnitude of the tensionT1is86.6N.

03

Magnitude of the tension T2 : 

The figure depicts a light ring attached by three ropes, two of which are fixed to the walls at right angles.

Using Newton's second law for equilibrium condition,

Fy=0

Resolving the components of tension in the ropes in y-direction,

T2-T3sin=0

Tension in the second rope =T2.

Substitute 100Nfor T3and 30for ,

T2-100Nsin30=0T2=100N0.5=50N

Hence, magnitude of the tensionT2is50N.
