The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of a 10 kg body suspended by a rope that makes an angle of 60 degrees with the vertical when pulled by a horizontal force, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Forces Acting on the Body The body has two main forces acting on it: 1. The weight of the body (W = mg), acting downwards. 2. The tension (T) in the rope, which has two components: - A vertical component (T cos(θ)) that balances the weight of the body. - A horizontal component (T sin(θ)) that is balanced by the horizontal force (F). ### Step 2: Calculate the Weight of the Body The weight of the body can be calculated using the formula: \[ W = mg \] Where: - \( m = 10 \, \text{kg} \) - \( g \approx 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) Calculating the weight: \[ W = 10 \times 9.81 = 98.1 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 3: Set Up the Equations From the forces acting on the body, we can set up the following equations based on the components of tension: 1. Vertical component: \[ T \cos(60^\circ) = mg \] 2. Horizontal component: \[ T \sin(60^\circ) = F \] ### Step 4: Substitute the Known Values Using \( \cos(60^\circ) = 0.5 \) and \( \sin(60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \): 1. From the vertical component: \[ T \cdot 0.5 = 98.1 \] \[ T = \frac{98.1}{0.5} = 196.2 \, \text{N} \] 2. From the horizontal component: \[ F = T \cdot \sin(60^\circ) = 196.2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Horizontal Force Now substituting the value of T into the horizontal force equation: \[ F = 196.2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] \[ F = 98.1 \sqrt{3} \] ### Step 6: Final Calculation To find the numerical value of \( F \): Using \( \sqrt{3} \approx 1.732 \): \[ F \approx 98.1 \cdot 1.732 \approx 170.0 \, \text{N} \] ### Final Answer The horizontal force \( F \) required to maintain the body at an angle of 60 degrees with the vertical is approximately **170.0 N**. ---
