26.10 N is the vertical component of the force.
Rx represents the Horizontal component of force
Ry represents The Vertical component of force
According to the given diagram
Rx - Tcosθ = 0
Rx = Tcosθ
And,
Ry + Tsinθ = mg
Ry = mg - Tsinθ
The horizontal component of force =The Vertical component of force
Rx = Ry
Tcosθ = mg - Tsinθ
T(cosθ + sinθ) = 29 × 9.8 = 284.2 N
T√2 cosθ = 284.2 N
T × √2 ×0.544 = 284.2 N
T × 0.769 = 284.2 N
T = 370 N (app)
So,
Ry = 284.2 - 370 (sin 57°)
= 284.2 - 310.3 = -26.10 N
Hence, 26.10 N is the vertical component of the force exerted.
