- 12. WHY IS THIS SO HARD? 1.Resolve all force vectors into their x y and z components 2. Σ𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 0 𝑁 3.Draw each pair of forces involved ONE PAIR AT A TIME Let’s make it simpler
- 13. Gravi ty (assume the ropes have negligible weight. Then the force of gravity on them is zero. You may exclude these two pairs of forces) Intuitively, we might assume that the force through each rope is 50N. But we can also prove it mathematically. 𝑇1 = 𝑇2 𝑇1 + 𝑇2 = 100𝑁 A simple substitution gives us the answer. 𝑇1 + 𝑇1 = 100𝑁 𝑇1 = 𝑇2 = 50𝑁
- 14. Gravi ty (assume the ropes have negligible weight. Then the force of gravity on them is zero. You may exclude these two pairs of forces)
- 15. Gravi ty (assume the ropes have negligible weight. Then the force of gravity on them is zero. You may exclude these two pairs of forces) According to Newton’s 3rd Law of Gravity, forces always occur in pairs. • What object does the “reaction force” act on? • What is the magnitude and direction of this “reaction
- 16. Gravi ty (assume the ropes have negligible weight. Then the force of gravity on them is zero. You may exclude these two pairs of forces) Since we are only concerned with the forces acting on the sign and not the earth, we can exclude the earth and the reaction force on it.
- 17. If the only force acting on the sign were the weight of the sign, there would be a NON- ZERO net force acting on the sign, and it would accelerate in the direction of the net force (in this case, towards the ground)
- 18. Tensi on Fortunately, there are 2 ropes supporting the weight of the sign. The SUM of these forces that are acting on the sign ADD UP TO ZERO. We know this because the sign is NOT ACCELERATING
- 19. CHECK YOUR WORK Did we include all relevant forces? Suggestion – always start with gravity So far, we have drawn the diagram. In the next step, we will calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the tension forces in each rope.
- 20. 𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 0𝑁 𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡,𝑥 = 0𝑁 𝐹𝑛𝑒𝑡,𝑥 = 0𝑁 AND
- 21. WHAT DO WE KNOW 𝑇1=𝑇2cosΘ We know this because the acceleration (and hence the net force) in the horizontal direction is zero. Don’t confuse these forces for action/reaction pairs of forces! Remember that the “reaction” forces are acting on THE SIGN. An easy way to remember this is to pretend the sign were made of a stretchy material.
- 22. WHAT DO WE KNOW In this problem, it is ESSENTIAL to solve for T2 before proceeding to the horizontal forces. Once you’ve done enough of these problems, you’ll see that each one is a puzzle to be solved. 𝑇1=𝑇2cosΘ
