An online video daredevil is filming a scene where he swings across a river on a vine. The safety crew must use a vine with enough strength so that it doesn't break while swinging. The daredevil's mass is 86.0 kg, the vine is 11.0 m long, and the speed of the daredevil at the bottom of the swing has been determined to be 7.00 m/s. What is the minimum tension force (in N) the vine must be able to support without breaking?

A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.

What is the largest mass Tarzan can have and make it safely across the river? * CHoose the letter only. a. 30 kg B.49 kg C. 71 kg D. 55 kg E. 62 kg
The “Giant Swing” at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper end. Each arm supports a seat suspended from a cable 5.00 m long, and the upper end of the cable is fastened to the arm at a point 3.00 m from the central shaft. (a) Find the time of one revolution of the swing if the cable supporting a seat makes an angle of 30.0◦ with the vertical. (b) Does the angle depend on the weight of the passenger for a given rate of revolution?

Using a simple pulley and rope system, a crewman on an Arctic expedition is trying to lower a crate of mass ?1=5.13 kg to the bottom of a steep ravine of height ?=22.5 m. The crewman of mass ?2=60.9 kg is walking while holding the rope, being careful to lower the crate at a constant speed of ?0=1.50 m/s. Unfortunately, when the crate reaches a point ℎ=12.5 m above the ground, the crewman steps on a slick patch of ice and slips. The crate immediately accelerates toward the ground, dragging the hapless crewman across the ice and toward the edge of the cliff. Assuming the ice is perfectly slick, so that there is no friction between the crewman and the ice once he slips and falls down, at what speed ?1 will the crate hit the ground? Assume also that the rope is long enough to allow the crate to hit the ground before the crewman slides over the side of the cliff, and that the pulley is frictionless. ?1=. m/s At what speed ?2 will the crewman hit the bottom of the ravine? Assume no…
The engines of a tanker broke down and the wind pushes the ship with a constant speed of 1.5 m / s straight towards a reef. When the boat is 500 m from the reef, the wind stops and the engineer manages to start the engines. The rudder is stuck, so the only option is to try to accelerate backwards. The mass of the ship and its cargo is 3.6 x 107 kg and the engines produce a net horizontal force of 8 x 104 N. The hull can withstand impacts at a speed of 0.2 m / s or less. The retarding force that the water exerts on the hull of the ship can be neglected. a) The equation of motion that corresponds to the horizontal component is? b)The acceleration of the ship is equal to? c) If the reef does not exist, the vessel, before stopping, travels what distance?
You are the physics consultant working on an action movie set where an SUV must start from rest, accelerate along a pier, and jump over a stretch of water to land in a departing ferry. (The director assures you it will all be very exciting.) The drawing below shows the situation. The SUV has four-wheel drive (see problem N5D.1), and the coefficients of friction between the tires and the pier’s surface are us =3/4 and uk = 1/2. Calculate the length L (as a fraction or multiple of D) of the run along the pier that you will need for the SUV to make it to the ferry. Ignore air drag.
