  • Sal has his Rico Suave voice on in this video

  • I thought it was pretty good. Do another problem where something is hanging from one string and then it has a rope attached to the left 15 degree below the horizontal and then a rope from the right with a 25 degree angle. The tension on the rope to the left is 500N. Whats the tension on the 25 degree rope? Something like that.

  • @megamanxu hell to the no...1 professor disliked

  • thank you sooo much

  • towards the end of the problem, the weight started to look like tevo.

  • Im get knowing better.

  • soh cah toa.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!nice­!!!!!!

  • @desertfox1792 gravity always acts down which is 9.8. if a projectile is going up then G= -9.8.

  • would you call the tension the reaction force of the weight of the block?

    or is it a seperate force and will have its own reaction force?

  • @kingpit7 just go to his site
