A horizontal wire holds a solid uniform ball of mass m in
Chapter 8, Problem 60P(choose chapter or problem)
A horizontal wire holds a solid uniform ball of mass m in place on a tilted ramp that rises 35.0° above the horizontal. The surface of this ramp is perfectly smooth, and the wire is directed away from the center of the ball (?Fig. P5.64?). (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the ball. (b) How hard does the surface of the ramp push on the ball? (c) What is the tension in the wire?

QUESTION:
A horizontal wire holds a solid uniform ball of mass m in place on a tilted ramp that rises 35.0° above the horizontal. The surface of this ramp is perfectly smooth, and the wire is directed away from the center of the ball (?Fig. P5.64?). (a) Draw a free-body diagram of the ball. (b) How hard does the surface of the ramp push on the ball? (c) What is the tension in the wire?
ANSWER:Solution 60P (a) The free body diagram is shown below. In this figure, T represents the tension of the chain, and N represents the normal reaction of the surface. (b) The surface pushes the ball with the force called normal f
