Chapter , Problem 59

(choose chapter or problem)

A box is held in position on a frictionless incline by a cable (Figure 4-46).

(a) If \(\theta=60^{\circ}\) and \(m=50 \mathrm{~kg}\), find the tension in the cable and the normal force exerted by the incline.

(b) Find the tension as a function of \(\theta\) and m, and check your result for plausibility in the special cases of \(\theta=0^{\circ}\) and \(\theta=90^{\circ}\).
