Problem 1

The two forces $$\texttip{\vec {F_1}}{F_1_vec}$$ = 1230$${\rm N}$$ and $$\vec{F}_2$$ that they apply to the stump are such that the net (resultant) force $$\texttip{\vec{R}}{R_vec}$$ has a magnitude equal to that of $$\vec{F}_1$$ and makes an angle of 90$$^\circ$$ with $$\vec{F}_1$$.

Part A

Part B

Find the direction of $$\texttip{\vec{F}_{\rm 2}}{F_2_vec}$$ (relative to $$\texttip{\vec {F_1}}{F_1_vec}$$).

Exercise 4

An adventurous archaeologist crosses between two rock cliffs by slowly going hand-over-hand along a rope stretched between the cliffs.

He stops to rest at the middle of the rope (Figure 1) . The rope will break if the tension in it exceeds 2.35×104$${\rm N}$$ , and our hero's mass is 92.4$${\rm kg}$$ .
