Question

A block-and-tactile pulley hoist is suspended in a warehouse by ropes of lengths 2 m and 3 m. The hoist weighs 350 N. The ropes, fastened at different heights, make angles of 50° and 38° with the horizontal. Find the tension in each rope and the magnitude of each tension. (Let $T_2$ and $T_3$ represent the tension vectors corresponding to the ropes of length 2 m and 3 m respectively. Round all numerical values to two decimal places.)

Step 1

We have a block-and-tackle pulley hoist suspended in a warehouse by ropes of lengths 2 m and 3 m. The hoist weighs 350 N. The ropes are fastened at different heights and make angles of 50° and 38° with the horizontal. Let's draw a diagram to visualize the Show more…

A block-and-tackle pulley hoist is suspended in a warehouse by ropes of lengths 2 m and 3 m. The hoist weighs 350 N. The ropes, fastened at different heights, make angles of 50° and 38° with the horizontal. Find the tension in each rope and the magnitude of each tension. Let T1 and T2 represent the tension vectors corresponding to the ropes of length 2 m and 3 m respectively. Round all numerical values to two decimal places. T1 = 275.99 N, T2 = 275.97 N, T = 225.12 N.
