Consider Figure 5.28. The driver attempts to get the car out of the mud by exerting a perpendicular force of 610.0 N, and the distance she pushes in the middle of the rope is 1.00 m while she stands 6.00 m away from the car on the left and 6.00 m away from the tree on the right. What is the tension Tin the rope, and how do you find the answer?

Check Your Understanding At the time of its launch, the HMS Titanic was the most massive mobile object ever built, with a mass of 6.0107kg . If a force of 6 MN (6106N) was applied to the ship, what acceleration would it experience?
When the Moon is directly overhead at sunset, the force by Earth on the Moon FEM , is essentially at 90 to the force by the Sun on the Moon, FSM, as shown below. Given that FEM=1.981020N and FSM=4.361020N , all other forces on the Moon are negligible, and the mass of the Moon is 7.351022kg, determine the magnitude of the Moon’s acceleration.
