Formulas for the balancing of forces

Examine the force diagram in the graph that is attached:

∑Fx=0

T1sen - T2cos = 0 Equation

∑Fy=0

T1cos ∝ + T2sin ∝ - W = 0. Equation(2)

forces in the x and y directions,

Horizontal movement

T1*CosA=T2*Cos(90-A)

Vertical Movement

m*g = T1*SinA + T2*Sin(90-A) (2)

We also know that T1=1.91 and T2 (3)

Thus, the final equations are

T1*CosA=T2*Cos(90-A)

A=62.365235 degrees using (2) and substituting a value for (3)

460*9.8 = 1.91*T2 *Sin(62.365235) + T2 *Cos(62.365235)

T2 = 4508 / (2.1559) = 2090.96 N

T1 = 1.91*T2 = 3993.737 N
