A series LR circuit contains an emf source of 19 V having no internal resistance, a resistor, a 22 H inductor having no appreciable resistance, and a switch. If the emf across the inductor is 80% of its maximum value 4 s after the switch is closed, what is the resistance of the resistor

Answers

Answer: R = 394.36ohm

Explanation: In a LR circuit, voltage for a resistor in function of time is given by:

[tex]V(t) = \epsilon. e^{-t.\frac{L}{R} }[/tex]

ε is emf

L is indutance of inductor

R is resistance of resistor

After 4s, emf = 0.8*19, so:

[tex]0.8*19 = 19. e^{-4.\frac{22}{R} }[/tex]

[tex]0.8 = e^{-\frac{88}{R} }[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.8) = ln(e^{-\frac{88}{R} })[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.8) = -\frac{88}{R}[/tex]

[tex]R = -\frac{88}{ln(0.8)}[/tex]

R = 394.36

In this LR circuit, the resistance of the resistor is 394.36ohms.

What happens to the magnetic field when you reverse the direction of current by sliding the battery voltage bar past 0 volts

Answers

Answer:

The polarity of the magnetic field changes

Explanation:

This because The magnetic field generated is always perpendicular to the direction of the current and parallel to the solonoid. Hence if we reverse the current the direction of magnetism also reverses. In other words the magnetic poles gets reversed (North pole becomes south pole and the south pole becomes the north pole)

A green light is submerged 2.70 m beneath the surface of a liquid with an index of refraction 1.31. What is the radius of the circle from which light escapes from the liquid into the air above the surface

Answers

Answer:

The radius is  [tex]r = 3.1905 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The  distance  beneath the liquid  is  [tex]d = 2.70 \ m[/tex]

        The refractive index of the liquid is  [tex]n_i = 1.31[/tex]

Now the critical value is mathematically represented as

         [tex]\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ][/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ][/tex]

         [tex]\theta = 49.76^o[/tex]

Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that

         [tex]tan \theta = \frac{ r}{d}[/tex]

=>     [tex]r = d * tan \theta[/tex]

substituting values  

        [tex]r = 2.7 * tan (49.76)[/tex]

        [tex]r = 3.1905 \ m[/tex]

         

A string is stretched and fixed at both ends, 200 cm apart. If the density of the string is 0.015 g/cm, and its tension is 600 N, what is the wavelength (in cm) of the first harmonic?

Answers

Answer:

200cm

Explanation:

Answer:

100cm

Explanation:

Scouts at a camp shake the rope bridge they have just crossed and observe the wave crests to be 9.70 m apart. If they shake the bridge twice per second, what is the propagation speed of the waves (in m/s)?

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the wave is 19.4 m/s

Explanation:

The wave's crest to crest distance (the wavelength of this rope's wave) λ= 9.70 m

The bridge is shaken twice, meaning that two wavelengths passed a given point on the rope per sec. The frequency of a wave is the amount of that wave that passes a given point in a second.

this means that the frequency f = 2 Hz

The speed of a wave = fλ = 9.70 x 2 = 19.4 m/s

You plan to take your hair blower to Europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 V instead of the 120 V seen in the United States. The blower puts out 1700 W at 120 V.Required:a. What could you do to operate your blower via the 240V line in Europe? which one is it?b. What current will your blower draw from a European outlet?c. What resistance will your blower appear to have when operated at 240 ?

Answers

Answer:

a) Connect a series resistance of 8,47 ohms

b)14,16 [A]

c) r = 10,96 ohms

Explanation:

My blower requires 120 (v) then, I have to connect a series resistor to make the nominal 240 (v) of the European voltage outlet drop to 120 (V) but at the same time keep the level of current to operate my blower

In America

P = V*I

1700 (w) = 120*I

I = 1700/120 [A]

I = 14,16 [A]        current needed for the blower

In Europe

120 (v)  (the drop of voltage I need) when a current of 14,16 passes through to series  resistor is

V = I*R          120 = 14,16* R         R = 8,47 ohms

c) P = I*r²

1700 (w) = 14,16 (A) * r²

r² = 120,06

r = 10,96 ohms

Suppose you exert a force of 185 N tangential to the outer edge of a 1.73-m radius 76-kg grindstone (which is a solid disk).

Required:
a. What torque is exerted?
b. What is the angular acceleration assuming negligible opposing friction?
c. What is the angular acceleration if there is an opposing frictional force of 20.0 N exerted 1.50 cm from the axis?

Answers

Answer:

a. 320.06 Nm b. 2.814 rad/s² c. 2.811 rad/s².

Explanation:

a. The torque exerted τ = Frsinθ where F = tangential force exerted = 185 N, r = radius of grindstone = 1.73 m and θ = 90° since the force is tangential to the grindstone.

τ = Frsinθ

= 185 N × 1.73 m × sin90°

= 320.05 Nm

So, the torque τ = 320.05 Nm

b. Since torque τ = Iα where I = moment of inertia of grindstone = 1/2MR² where M = mass of grindstone = 76 kg and R = radius of grindstone = 1.73 m

α = angular acceleration of grindstone

τ = Iα

α = τ/I = τ/(MR²/2) = 2τ/MR²

substituting the values of the variables, we have

α = 2τ/MR²

= 2 × 320.05 Nm/[76 kg × (1.73 m)²]

= 640.1 Nm/227.4604 kgm²

= 2.814 rad/s²

So, the angular acceleration α = 2.814 rad/s²

c. The opposing frictional force produces a torque τ' = F'r' where F' = frictional force = 20.0 N and r' = distance of frictional force from axis = 1.50 cm = 0.015 m.

So  τ' = F'r' = 20.0 N × 0.015 m = 0.3 Nm

The net torque on the grindstone is thus τ'' = τ - τ' = 320.05 Nm - 0.3 Nm = 319.75 Nm

Since τ'' = Iα

α' = τ''/I where α' = its new angular acceleration

α' = 2τ/MR²

= 2 × 319.75 Nm/[76 kg × (1.73 m)²]

= 639.5 Nm/227.4604 kgm²

= 2.811 rad/s²

So, the angular acceleration α' = 2.811 rad/s²

In a photoelectric-effect experiment it is observed that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nmnm . Part A What is the work function of this material

Answers

Answer:

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Explanation:

In the photoelectric effect, the energy of the incoming photon is usually used in part to extract the photoelectron from the material (work function) and then the rest is converted into kinetic energy of the photoelectron which is given by the formula;

K_max = hf - Φ

where;

hf represents the energy of the incoming photon

h is the Planck's constant

f is the light frequency

Φ is the work function of the material

K_max is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.

From the question, we are told that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nm. This means that when the wavelength has this value, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is zero i.e K_max = 0. Thus the energy of the incoming photons is just enough to extract the photoelectrons from the material.

Thus,

hf - Φ = 0

hf = Φ - - - (1)

We are given the wavelength as;

λ = 540 nm = 540 × 10^(-9) m

Now, let's find the frequency of the light by using the relationship between frequency and wavelength. The equation is;

f = c/λ

Where c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

f = (3 × 10^(8))/(540 × 10^(-9))

f = 5.56 × 10^(14) Hz

Thus, from equation 1,we can now find the work function;

Φ = hf

h is Planck's constant and has a value of 6.626 × 10^(-34) J.s

Thus;

Φ = 6.626 × 10^(-34) × 5.56 × 10^(14)

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

(4) Use the preliminary observations to answer these questions; Compared to no polarizer or analyzer in the optical path, by what percent does the light intensity decrease when (a) The polarizer is introduced into the optical path? (b) The both polarizer and analyzer are introduced into the optical path?

Answers

Answer:

a)   I = I₀/2, b)  I = I₀/2 cos² θ

Explanation:

To answer these questions, let's analyze a little the way of working of a polarized

* When a non-polarized light hits a polarizer, the electric field that is not in the direction of the polarizer is absorbed, so the transmitted light is

          i = I₀ / 2

and is polarized in the direction of the polarizer

* when a polarized light reaches the analyzer it must comply with Malus's law

          I = I₁ cos² θ

where the angle is between the polarized light and the analyzer.

With this, let's answer the questions

a) When a polarizer is placed in the non-polarized light path, half of it is absorbed and only the light that has polarization in the direction of the polarizer is transmitted with an intensity of

                  I = I₀/2

b) when a polarizer and an analyzer are fitted, the intensity of the light transmitted by the analyzer is

                I = I₀/2 cos² θ

where the final value depends on the angle between the polarizer and the analyzer.

Let's look at two extreme cases

θ = 0          I = Io / 2

θ = 90º      I = 0

What is the maximum speed with which a 1200-kg car can round a turn of radius 94.0 m on a flat road if the coefficient of static friction between tires and road is 0.50?

Answers

Answer:

         v= 21.47m/s      

Explanation:

For the car to turn at the about the centripetal force must not be greater than the static friction between the tires and the road

we will use the expression relating centripetal force and static friction below

let U represent the coefficient of static friction

Given that

U= 0.50

mass m= 1200-kg

radius r= 94.0 m

Assuming g= 9.81 m/s^2

[tex]U*m*g=\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex]

[tex]U*g=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]

substituting our given data in to expression we can solve for the speed V

[tex]0.5*9.81=\frac{v^2}{94}[/tex]

making v the subject of formula we have

[tex]0.5*9.81=\frac{v^2}{94}\\\v= \sqrt{0.5*9.81*94} \\\\v= \sqrt{461.07} \\\\v= 21.47[/tex]

v= 21.47m/s

hence the maximum velocity of the car is 21.47m/s

Suppose that you know that the mass of the unknown object is more than a kilogram.

Answers

Answer:

a) k = 95.54 N / m,   c =   19.55 , b)      m₃ = 0.9078 kg

Explanation:

In a simple harmonic movement with friction, we can assume that this is provided by the speed

          fr = -c v

when solving the system the angular value remains

          w² = w₀² + (c / 2m)²

They give two conditions

1) m₁ = 1 kg

     f₁ = 1.1 Hz

the angular velocity is related to frequency

         w = 2π f₁

Let's find the angular velocity without friction is

         w₂ = k / m₁

we substitute

        (2π f₁)² = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

2) m₂ = 2 kg

    f₂ = 0.8 Hz

        (2π f₂)² = k / m₂ + (c / 2m₂)²

we have a system of two equations with two unknowns, so we can solve it

we solve (c / 2m)² is we equalize the expression

           (2π f₁)² - k / m₁ = (2π f₂²) 2 - k / m₁

           k (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁) = 4π² (f₂² - f₁²)

           k = 4π² (f₂² -f₁²) / (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁)

a) Let's calculate

           k = 4 π² (0.8² -1.1²) / (½ -1/1)

           k = 39.4784 (1.21) / (-0.5)

           k = 95.54 N / m

now we can find the constant of friction

              (2π f₁) 2 = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

           c2 = ((2π f₁)² - k / m₁) 4m₁²

           c2 = (4ππ² f₁² - k / m₁) 4 m₁²

let's calculate

           c² = (4π² 1,1² - 95,54 / 1) 4 1²

           c² = (47.768885 - 95.54) 8

           c² = -382.1689

           c =   19.55    

b) f₃ = 0.2 Hz

   m₃ =?

              (2πf₃)² = k / m₃ + (c / 2m₃) 2

we substitute the values

              (4π² 0.2²) = 95.54 / m₃ + 382.1689 2/4 m₃²

              1.579 = 95.54 / m₃ + 95.542225 / m₃²

let's call

              x = 1 / m₃

              x² = 1 / m₃²

- 1.579 + 95.54 x + 95.542225 x² = 0

              60.5080 x² + 60.5080 x -1 = 0

                x² + x - 1.65 10⁻² = 0

                  x = [1 ±√ (1- 4 (-1.65 10⁻²)] / 2

                  x = [1 ± 1.03] / 2

                  x₁ = 1.015 kg

                  x₂ = -0.015 kg

Since the mass must be positive we eliminate the second results

                  x₁ = 1 / m₃

                 m₃ = 1 / x₁

                  m₃ = 1 / 1.1015

C) 60 N
D)1.00

Answers

Answer:

Work = 0.36N

Explanation:

Given

Force = 12N

Distance = 0.03m

Weight = 0.05kg

Required

Determine the work done

Workdone is calculated as thus;

Work = Force * Distance

Substitute 12N for Force and 0.03m for Distance

Work = 12N * 0.03m

Work = 0.36Nm

Using proper S.I units

Work = 0.36N

Hence, work done by the spring on the ball is 0.36N

Calculate: a. the electric field between the plates b. the surface charge density c. the capacitance d. the charge on each plate.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(b) 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

(c) 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Explanation:

(a) For a parallel plate capacitor, the electric field E between the plates is given by;

E = V / d               -----------(i)

Where;

V = potential difference applied to the plates

d = distance between these plates

From the question;

V = 25.0V

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 25.0 / 0.0017

E = 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(c) The capacitance of the capacitor is given by

C = Aε₀ / d

Where

C = capacitance

A = Area of the plates = 7.60cm² = 0.00076m²

ε₀ = permittivity of free space =  8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

C = 0.00076 x  8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.0017

C = 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) The charge, Q, on each plate can be found as follows;

Q = C V

Q =  3.9 x 10⁻¹² x 25.0

Q = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Now since we have found other quantities, it is way easier to find the surface charge density.

(b) The surface charge density, σ, is the ratio of the charge Q on each plate to the area A of the plates. i.e

σ = Q / A

σ = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹ /  0.00076

σ = 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to

Answers

Answer:

Ok, the question is incomplete buy ill try to answer this in a general way.

Suppose that you have no-polarized light.

When that light hits one polaroid, the light becomes polarized along some line, and has an intensity I0.

Now, when polarized light hits a polaroid which axis is at an angle θ with respect to the polarization of the light, the intensity of the resulting beam is given by the Malus's law:

I(θ) = I0*cos^2(θ)

For example, if the axis of the polaroid is exactly the same as the one of the polarized light, then we have θ = 0°

and:

I(0°) = I0*cos^2(0°) = I0

So the intensity does not change.

Now, knowing the initial intensity, you can find the angle needed to get a given intensity.

For example, if the question was:

"At what angle should the axes of two Polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to A"

We should solve:

I(θ) = A = I0*cos^2(θ)

(A/i0) = cos^2(θ)

√(A/I0) = cos(θ)

Acos(√(A/I0)) = θ

an ideal gas is confined to a container with adjustable volume. the number of moles, n, and temperature, t, are constant. by what factor will the volume change if pressure increase by a factor of 5.1

Answers

Answer:

The volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both moles and temperature remain constant, we can use the Boyle's law that relates the volume and pressure as an inversely proportional relationship:

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]

Thus, since the pressure increases by a factor of 5.1 (statement), we have:

[tex]P_2=5.1P_1[/tex]

Thus, the final volume is:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} =\frac{P_1V_1}{5.1P_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{10}{51}V_1[/tex]

It means that the volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Regards.

Adjust the mass of the refrigerator by stacking different objects on top of it. If the mass of the refrigerator is increased (with the Applied Force held constant), what happens to the acceleration

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration of the refrigerator together with the objects decreases.

Explanation:

If the mass of the refrigerator is increased by stacking more masses (objects) on it,

and the force applied remains constant, then we know from

F = ma

where

F is the applied force

m is the total mass of the refrigerator and the objects

a is the acceleration of the masses.

If F is constant, and m is increased, the acceleration will decrease

Answer:

The acceleration decreases.

A viewing screen is separated from a double slit by 5.20 m. The distance between the two slits is 0.0300 mm. Monochromatic light is directed toward the double slit and forms an interference pattern on the screen. The first dark fringe is 3.70 cm from the center line on the screen.

Required:
a. Determine the wavelength of light.
b. Calculate the distance between the adjacent bright fringes.

Answers

Answer:

The wavelength of this light is approximately [tex]427\; \rm nm[/tex] ([tex]4.27\times 10^{-7}\; \rm m[/tex].)The distance between the first and central maxima is approximately [tex]7.40\; \rm cm[/tex] (about twice the distance between the first dark fringe and the central maximum.)  

Explanation:

Wavelength

Convert all lengths to meters:

Separation of the two slits: [tex]0.0300\; \rm mm = 3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m[/tex].Distance between the first dark fringe and the center of the screen: [tex]3.70\; \rm cm = 3.70\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m[/tex].

Refer to the diagram attached (not to scale.) Assuming that the screen is parallel to the line joining the two slits. The following two angles are alternate interior angles and should be equal to each other:

The angle between the filter and the beam of light from the lower slit, andThe angle between the screen and that same beam of light.

These two angles are marked with two grey sectors on the attached diagram. Let the value of these two angles be [tex]\theta[/tex].

The path difference between the two beams is approximately equal to the length of the segment highlighted in green. In order to produce the first dark fringe from the center of the screen (the first minimum,) the length of that segment should be [tex]\lambda / 2[/tex] (one-half the wavelength of the light.)

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos \theta \approx \frac{\text{Path difference}}{\text{Slit separation}} = \frac{\lambda / 2}{3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m}[/tex].

On the other hand:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \cot \theta &\approx \frac{\text{Distance between central peak and first minimum}}{\text{Distance between the screen and the slits}} \\ &= \frac{3.70\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m}{5.20\; \rm m} \approx 0.00711538\end{aligned}[/tex].

Because the cotangent of [tex]\theta[/tex] is very close to zero,

[tex]\cos \theta \approx \cot \theta \approx 0.00711538[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\lambda /2}{3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m} \approx \cos\theta\approx 0.00711538[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}\lambda &\approx 2\times 0.00711538 \times \left(3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m\right) \\ &\approx 4.26 \times 10^{-7}\; \rm m = 426\; \rm nm\end{aligned}[/tex].

Distance between two adjacent maxima

If the path difference is increased by one wavelength, then the intersection of the two beams would move from one bright fringe to the next one.

The path difference required for the central maximum is [tex]0[/tex].The path difference required for the first maximum is [tex]\lambda[/tex].The path difference required for the second maximum is [tex]2\,\lambda[/tex].

On the other hand, if the distance between the maximum and the center of the screen is much smaller than the distance between the screen and the filter, then:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\frac{\text{Distance between image and center of screen}}{\text{Distance between the screen and the slits}} \\ &\approx \cot \theta \\ &\approx \cos \theta \\ &\approx \frac{\text{Path difference}}{\text{Slit separation}}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Under that assumption, the distance between the maximum and the center of the screen is approximately proportional to the path difference. The distance between the image (the first minimum) and the center of the screen is [tex]3.70\; \rm cm[/tex] when the path difference is [tex]\lambda / 2[/tex]. The path difference required for the first maximum is twice as much as that. Therefore, the distance between the first maximum and the center of the screen would be twice the difference between the first minimum and the center of the screen: [tex]2 \times 3.70\; \rm cm = 7.40\; \rm cm[/tex].

Which statement accurately describes the inner planets? Uranus is one of the inner planets. The inner planets formed when the solar system cooled. The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets. The inner planets are larger than the outer planets.

Answers

The correct answer is C. The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets.

Explanation:

Our solar system includes a total of eight planets. Additionally, planets are classified into broad categories including inner planets and outer planets. The inner planets category applies to planets such as Earth, Mercury, or Mars because these are located within the asteroid belt (region of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter). Moreover, inner planets differ from others due to their composition as they are composed of rocks and metals. Also, due to this composition, these are known as terrestrial planets. According to this, the statement that best describes inner planets is "The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets".

Answer:

The answer is c.) The inner planets are also called terrestrial planets.

Explanation:

A person can see clearly up close but cannot focus on objects beyond 75.0 cm. She opts for contact lenses to correct her vision.
(a) Is she nearsighted or farsighted?
(b) What type of lens (converging or diverging) is needed to correct her vision?
(c) What focal length contact lens is needed, and what is its power in diopters?

Answers

Answer:

(a) nearsighted

(b) diverging

(c) the lens strength in diopters is 1.33 D, and considering the convention for divergent lenses normally prescribed as: -1 33 D

Explanation:

(a) The person is nearsighted because he/she cannot see objects at distances larger than 75 cm.

(b) the type of correcting lens has to be such that it counteracts the excessive converging power of the eye of the person, so the lens has to be diverging (which by the way carries by convention a negative focal length)

(c) the absolute value of the focal length (f) is given by the formula:

[tex]f=\frac{1}{d} =\frac{1}{0.75} = 1.33\,D[/tex]

So it would normally be written with a negative signs in front indicating a divergent lens.

A concrete slab shown in Figure 5 is being lifted by using three cables connected to the slab at points A, B and C. The slab is in the xy plane. The vertical force required to lift this slab is 60 kN (F 60 kN). Find the tensions in cables DA, DB and DC (show all your workings that you do to find these)

Answers

Answer:

Fad = 28.8 kN

Fbd = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 28.1 kN

Explanation:

First, find the length of each cable.

AD = √((2 m)² + (0.5 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

AD = √10.5 m

AD ≈ 3.24 m

BD = √((1.5 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

BD = √9.5 m

BD ≈ 3.08 m

CD = √((1 m)² + (1 m)² + (2.5 m)²)

CD = √8.25 m

CD ≈ 2.87 m

Next, use similar triangles to find the x, y, and z components of each tension force.

Fadx = 2/3.24 Fad = 0.617 Fad

Fady = 0.5/3.24 Fad = 0.154 Fad

Fadz = 2.5/3.24 Fad = 0.772 Fad

Fbdx = 1.5/3.08 Fbd = 0.487 Fbd

Fbdy = 1/3.08 Fbd = 0.324 Fbd

Fbdz = 2.5 / 3.08 Fbd = 0.811 Fbd

Fcdx = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdy = 1/2.87 Fcd = 0.348 Fcd

Fcdz = 2.5/2.87 Fcd = 0.870 Fcd

Now sum the forces in the x, y, and z directions:

∑Fx = ma

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fy = ma

-0.154 Fad − 0.324 Fbd + 0.348 Fcd = 0

∑Fz = ma

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

To solve this system of equations algebraically, start by subtracting the first two equations, eliminating Fcd.

-0.463 Fad + 0.811 Fbd = 0

0.811 Fbd = 0.463 Fad

Fbd = 0.571 Fad

Substitute into either of the first two equations:

-0.617 Fad + 0.487 (0.571 Fad) + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.617 Fad + 0.278 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

-0.339 Fad + 0.348 Fcd = 0

0.348 Fcd = 0.339 Fad

Fcd = 0.975 Fad

Now substituting into the third equation:

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 Fbd − 0.870 Fcd = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.811 (0.571 Fad) − 0.870 (0.975 Fad) = 0

60 kN − 0.772 Fad − 0.463 Fad − 0.849 Fad = 0

60 kN − 2.083 Fad = 0

Fad = 28.8 kN

Solving for the other two tension forces:

Fbd = 0.571 Fad = 16.4 kN

Fcd = 0.975 Fad = 28.1 kN

Answer:

Tensions of:

DA = 28.81 KN

DB = 16.45 KN

DC = 28.07 KN
