Asailor is being rescued using a boatswain's chair that is suspended from a pulley that can roll freely on the support cable acb and is pulled at a constant speed by cable cd. knowing that alpha = 30 degree and beta = 10degree and that the combined weight of the boatswain's chair and the sailor is 900 n, determine the tension (a) in the support cable acb, (b) in the traction cable cd.

Asolid cylinder is concentric with a straight pipe. the cylinder is 0.5 m long and has an outside diameter of 8 cm. the pipe has an inside diameter of 8.5 cm. the annulus between the cylinder ad the pipe contains stationary oil. the oil has a specific gravity of 0.92 and a kinematic viscosity of 5.57 x 10-4 m2/s. most nearly, what is the force needed to move the cylinder along the pipe at a constant velocity of 1 m/s?
