Equilibrium in a tractive apparatus - tension and pulleys
Ok I think I got it. Someone else posted a similar problem that I didn't find before. So tension is the same through the entire rope = 98N Knowing that I found the x & y components of the two known angles, 45 and 75. These components have to combine with those of F to equal 0. Then I...- sethro_gt

Equilibrium in a tractive apparatus - tension and pulleys
Homework Statement Determine the magnitude and direction (theta) of F in the diagram of Homework Equations ΣFx = 0 ΣFy = 0 F = ma The Attempt at a Solution I tried using the sum of components but I end up with three variables and two equations. I've always had issues with...- sethro_gt
