By analysis of the problem and drawing a mental figure, we can solve this by using trigonometric functions. It is safe to say that the tension in the rope is the hypotenuse. So to find for the x-component:

cos 33 = x/290
x = 290 * cos 33
x = 243.21 units

Therefore, the x-component of tension is equal to 243.21 units

A 0.305 kg book rests at an angle against one side of a bookshelf. The magnitude and direction of the total force exerted on the
tankabanditka [31]

Answer

given,

F_L= 1.52\ N

\theta_L= 31^0

mass of book = 0.305 Kg

so, from the diagram attached  below

F_L cos {\theta_L} + F_b sin {\theta_b} = m g

1.52 times cos {31^0} + F_b sin {\theta_b} = 0.305 \times 9.8

F_b sin {\theta_b} = 2.989 -1.303

F_b sin {\theta_b} = 1.686

computing horizontal component

F_b cos {\theta_b} = F_L sin {\theta_L}

cos {\theta_b} = \dfrac{F_L sin {\theta_L}}{F_b}

cos {\theta_b} = \dfrac{1.52 \times sin {31^0}}{1.686}

cos {\theta_b} = 0.464

θ = 62.35°

How much power does it take to lift a 24 kg gift box 6m above the floor in 4 s?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

<h2>5.6kW</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

mass m= 24kg

distance moved= 6m

time taken= 4seconds

Step two:

Required

power

but work done is the force applied at a distance, and the power is the work done time the time taken

Work done= F*D

F=mg

W= mg*D

W=24*9.81*6

W=1412.6J

Power P= work * time

P=1412.6*4

p=5650.5W

P=5.6kW
