Question

A hungry 728-N bear walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve some ``goodies'' hanging at the end (see figure). The beam is uniform, weighs 216 N, and is 5.41 m long; the goodies weigh 82 N.

 

When the bear is at ?=1.00x=1.00 m, find (b) the tension on the wire and (c) the magnitude of the beam's force on the wall. (This will be equal and opposite to the wall's force on the beam. Both ?x- and ?y-components will contribute.)

 

what is Tension on the wire

 

the Beam's force on wall.

 

If the wire can withstand a maximum tension of 900 N, what is the maximum distance the bear can walk before the wire breaks?
