Find the tension in each cord in Fig. E$5.7$ if the weight of the suspended object is $w$.

A large wrecking ball is held in place by two light steel cables (Fig. E$5.6$). If the mass m of the wrecking ball is $3620$ kg, what are the (a) tension $T_B$ in the cable that makes an angle of $40°$ with the vertical and (b) the tension $T_A$ in the horizontal cable?

A picture frame hung against a wall is suspended by two wires attached to its upper corners. If the two wires make the same angle with the vertical, what must this angle be if the tension in each wire is equal to $0.75$ of the weight of the frame? (Ignore any friction between the wall and the picture frame.)

A $75.0$-kg wrecking ball hangs from a uniform, heavy-duty chain of mass $26.0$ kg. What is the tension at a point three-fourths of the way up from the bottom of the chain?

A $1130$-kg car is held in place by a light cable on a very smooth (frictionless) ramp (Fig. E$5.8$). The cable makes an angle of $31.0°$ above the surface of the ramp, and the ramp itself rises at $25.0°$ above the horizontal. How hard does the surface of the ramp push on the car?

A $1130$-kg car is held in place by a light cable on a very smooth (frictionless) ramp (Fig. E$5.8$). The cable makes an angle of $31.0°$ above the surface of the ramp, and the ramp itself rises at $25.0°$ above the horizontal. Find the tension in the cable.

A $1130$-kg car is held in place by a light cable on a very smooth (frictionless) ramp (Fig. E$5.8$). The cable makes an angle of $31.0°$ above the surface of the ramp, and the ramp itself rises at $25.0°$ above the horizontal. Draw a free-body diagram for the car.
