Question:Two identical balls, each in diameter, are suspended by two wires (Fig. P5.85). The entire apparatus is supported by a single wire, and the surfaces of the balls are perfectly smooth. (a) Find the tension in each of the three wires. (b) How hard does each ball push on the other one?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The tension in each three wires are 294N, 157N and 157N respectively.

(b) Each ball pushes the other ball with a force of 56.60 N.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data

The given data can be listed below as:

  • The mass of both balls ism1=m2=15.0kg.
  • The diameter of both balls isrole="math" localid="1668492539934" d=25.0肠尘脳10- 2m1cm=25脳10-2m.
  • The length of the wires isl1=l2=35.0肠尘脳10- 2m1cm= 35脳10- 2m.
  • The length of the single wire is l=18.0肠尘脳10- 2m1cm= 18脳10- 2m.

Significance of the tension

Tension is described as the force that is used to push or pull a particular object. The tension is also helpful for identifying the force exerted on an object.

03

(a) Determination of the tension in each wire

The free body diagram of the system is drawn below:

From the above diagram, it can be identified that there are three tensions acting such as T, T and T'. The tension acting on both the balls are equal but the total tension T' is the addition of the weight of the balls.

The equation of the Tension of the first ball is expressed as:

Tsin=mgT=mgsin(i)

Here, is the angle made by the first ball with the horizontal, m is the mass of the first ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity and T is the tension made by the first ball.

From the above diagrams, the angle made by the first ball can be identified with the help of Pythagoras鈥 theorem.

The straight line starting from the end of the wire to the center of the ball is described as the perpendicular line. According to the Pythagoras鈥 theorem, the straight line is described as the root of the subtraction of the square between the length of the first wire and the radius of the ball.

The equation of the angle subtended by the first ball is expressed as:

sin=l12-d22l1....(ii)

Here, l1is the length of the first wire and d is the diameter of the ball.

Substitute the values in the above equation.

sin=0.35m2-0.25m220.35m=0.1225m2-0.015m20.35m=0.1075m20.35m=0.32m0.35m=0.934

Substitute 0.934 for sin, 9.8m/s2for g and 15.0kg for m in the equation (i).

T=15.0kg9.8m/s20.934=147kgm/s20.934=157kgm/s21N1kgm/s2=157N

Hence, it is the tension in both the wires.

The equation of the tension in the third wire is expressed as:

T'=mg+mg=2mg

Here, T' the tension in the third wire.

Substitute the values in the above equation.

T'=215kg9.8m/s2=30kg9.8m/s2=294kgm/s21N1kgm/s2=294N

Thus, the tension in each three wires are 294N, 157N and 157N respectively.

04

(b) Determination of the force one ball pushes the other with

From the free body diagram, the equation of the force one ball pushes the other with is expressed as:

F=Tcos=T1-sin2

Here, F is the force one ball pushes the other with.

Substitute the values in the above equation.

F=157N1-0.9342=157N1-0.872=157N0.13=157N0.36= 56.60N

Thus, each ball pushes the other ball with a force of 56.60N.
