A new art exhibit featuring mobile works is going up in the Holland, MI, area. One piece is shown in the figure. The 155-N uniform beam is pinned to the ground by a pivot. The beam is supported by a cable (attached to the center of the beam) to allow for each of the shoes to hang freely. Each individual shoe has a weight of 9.5-N. If one shoe is attached two-fifths of the way up the beam and another shoe is attached and three-fifths of the way up the beam, with θc = 16.5° and θb = 33.6° as shown in the figure, what is the tension in the cable, in newtons? What is the x-component of the force, in newtons, that the pivot exerts on the bottom of the beam? Use the coordinate system specified in the figure. What is the y-component of the force, in newtons, that the hinge exerts on the bottom of the beam? Use the coordinate system specified in the figure.
The bar ABCD has rigid supports and consists of three prismatic solid segments, as shown. The end segments have cross-sectional area A1 = 840 mm2 and length L1 = 200 mm.
