    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    Him. He also told us to add the 37 degrees because he forgot to add it onto the photo; and I've typed the statement up to a T.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    Oh, no, that was just me trying to figure out the angle. He said nothing about B and D being the same point.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    The exact question is: An 11kg traffic light hangs from a structure as shown. The aluminium pole AB is 7.5m long and weighs 8 kg. Determine the tension in cable CD. He told us the angle CDA is 37.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    Sorry; I didn't proof read before I posted. AB is 7.5 m. We are given the weight of the pole, the stoplight, the angle of 37 degrees, the length of AB and that is all.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    AB is the 7.5 m. And r1(f1) is the pole being (8)(9.81)cos37 (8 is mass of pole) and r is the distance from the center of mass to the pivot.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    The image in the attachment in my original post is the exact question I'm doing. The information I I gave in my original type up of the question is what we're given.

    Tension in a cable with a traffic light -- Torque question

    Sorry, I forgot to add tan. Also; ignoring AC because that's not on the question we were given, our teacher changed it up a little before handing it to us. The photo I posted was just the closest approximation to the one he's given us.

    A redox titration with kmno4- and h2o2 help

    I don't want to google it and copy it so I can learn from this. Thanks for the site. I just have one quick question. When they ask for the average volume of permangate ion used, is that the average volume of all the kmno4 used during titrating, or something else?
