this might sound stupid but i am not sure how to resolve for the tensions, from what i understand that u have written, I should add the sum of Ftx(cos53) with the tension of the radius. But how can i solve this equation without velocity. I have been trying to figure this out for some reason i...
the string makes a triangle. A to C follows the Y axis; A to B the X axis; and C to B the hypotenuse. I have calculated the leangth on the of the triangle sides and determined that the angle at point B is 53 degrees. Since the only force given in the question is gravity, I am working with it to...
Homework Statement
A 100 g bead is free to slide along an 80 cm long piece of string ABC. The
ends of the string are attached to a vertical pole at A and C, which are 40
cm apart. When the pole is rotated about its axis, AB becomes horizontal
