Consider the arrangement of ideal massless cables and a 450cmlong10kg
horizontal iron bar which are used to hang a bucket of waterfromtwo walls. What is the
tension in all the cables if 50kg of water is placed in thebucket?What is the vertical
force that each of the walls exerts on the iron rod? (EDIT:Addeddiagram below)

Hanging Chandelier (Figure 1 A chandelier with mass m is attached to the ceiling of a large concert hall by two cables. Because the ceiling is covered with intricate architectural decorations (not indicated in the figure, which uses a humbler depiction), the workers who hung the chandelier couldn't attach the cables to the ceiling directly above the chandelier Instead, they attached the cables to the ceiling near the walls. Cable 1 has tension T₁and makes an angle θ₁ with the ceiling. Cable 2 has tension T₂ and makes an angle θ₂ with the ceiling?

Find an expression for T₁, the tension in cable 1, that does not depend on T₂.

Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables m, θ₁, and θ₂, as well as the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity g. You must use parentheses around θ₁ and θ₂, when they are used as arguments to any trigonometric functions in your answer.

The mass of Zorba, a mastiff born in London, England, was measured in 1989 to be 155 kg. Suppose Zorba is placed in a harness that is suspended from the ceiling by two cables that are at right angles to each other. If the tension in one cable is twice as large as the tension in the other cable, what are the magnitudes of the two tensions? Assume the mass of the cables and harness to be negligible. Before doing the calculations, draw a free-body diagram showing the forces acting on Zorba.

The figure below shows a long, insulating, massless rod of length L, pivoted at its center and balanced with a weight W at a distance x from the left end. At the left and right ends of the rod are attached positive charges q and 2q, respectively. A distance h directly beneath each of these charges is a fixed positive charge Q. (a) Find the distance x for the position of the weight when the rod is balanced. (b) What value should h have so that the rod exerts no vertical force on the bearing when balanced? Neglect the interaction between charges at the opposite ends of the rod.
