A beam of length 11 m is supported as shown below. There is a pin in the bottom end of the beam and a mass hanging from the top end of the beam. If the mass of the beam is mb =264 kg, the hanging block has a mass of m1 =81.8 kg, theta = 50.1 degrees, and phi = 35.1 degrees, what is magnitude of the tension in the wire attaching the beam to the ground?
A rod extends horizontally from a wall. It’s attached to the wall by a bolt at one end, and a wire at the other, as shown. A “SALE” sign hangs from the center of the rod. The rod has W(rod) = 200.0 N and length 3.00 m. The sign has W(sign) = 100.0 N. Find the tension in the wire reported in Newtons.
Two vertical cables suspend a 354-N, 1.94-m uniform bar at each end. Cable A can support a maximum tension of 513 N without breaking, and cable B can support up to 351 N. If you want to put a heavy weight on this bar, where should you position it respect to cable A such that the cables and the bar do not break? Express your answer in meters and in two decimal places.
