4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
hard
Mr. $A, B$ and $C$ are trying to put a heavy piston into a cylinder at a mechanical workshop in railway yard. If they apply forces $F_1, F_2$ and $F_3$ respectively on ropes then for which set of forces at that instant, they will be able to perform the said job?
A$\sqrt{3} F_1=F_2+2 F_3$
B$2 F_1=F_2+F_3$
C$2 F_2=\sqrt{3} F_1-\frac{F_3}{2}$
D$F_3=2 F_1-\sqrt{3} F_2$
Solution
(a)
Piston is vertically above the cylinder so to drop it inside the cylinder, Net horizontal force must be zero on the piston
So,
$F_1 \sin 60=F_2 \cos 60+F_3$
$F_1 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{F_2}{2}+F_3$
$\sqrt{3} F_1=F_2+2 F_3$
