I attached the question and solution .I need to know in the solution hoe F and Acceleration are determined

@ganeshie8 @dan815 @iGreen @mathslover @Data_LG2 @Mashy @One098 @mathmath333 @bohotness @jojo4eva @One098 @Firejay5 @leonardo0430 @Teddyiswatshecallsme @caitlinnr14

OpenStudy (bohotness):

do you have any answer chioces

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can hardly see anything in those attached files.. they are too small

OpenStudy (vijay222ms):

@Mashy please click them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes I clicked them obviously :P And it is still too small

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait.. Its not pixelated.. I can zoom in haha!

OpenStudy (vijay222ms):

@bohotness no options I provided the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok this is pretty straight forward.. can you tell me exactly which part didn't you get?

OpenStudy (bohotness):

oaky n

How Force and Acceleration are determined @Mashy

OpenStudy (bohotness):

ho,ld on okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok.. so you have to resolve the forces. It is clear that the particles experience no net acceleration in the y direction. There fore the net force in the y direction must be zero Or total upward force = total down ward force. upward force is F Downward forces are tensions which are angled theta with vertical. So their vertical component would be Tcos(theta) So total downward force is 2 T cos(theta) These must be equal to keep the acceleration IN THE Y DIRECTION zero!. cool?

OpenStudy (vijay222ms):

Ok .Then how acceleration = Tsin (theta)/m is determined

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From the above you can calculate the tension And what is accelerating the particles in the x direction? the component of the tension along x It is this force taht must be equal to ma

@Mashy thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can actually thank me by viewing my most recent science video and give me a feed back Its about gravity and escape speed (fast versions.. 4 mins) http://youtu.be/YhtxCvN9Uik?list=PLawLaqps30oAppNyNWN-RVJkRm2FjbN-S Looking forward for the feed back :D
