Question
In the figure, a 137 kg uniform log hangs by two steel wires, A and B, both of radius 1.20 mm. Initially, wire A was 2.50 m long and 1.75 mm shorter than wire B. The log is now horizontal. Young's modulus for steel is \(2.00 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2\). What are the magnitudes of the forces on it from (a) wire A and (b) wire B? (c) What is the ratio \(d_A/d_B\)?
 
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram shows a log suspended by two vertical wires, labeled as Wire A and Wire B. The wires are attached to the log at distances \(d_A\) and \(d_B\) from the center of mass (com) of the log. Wire A is on the left side, and Wire B is on the right side of the log.

**Questions:**
(a) Determine the force magnitude on the log from Wire A.

(b) Determine the force magnitude on the log from Wire B.

(c) Calculate the ratio \(d_A/d_B\).

**Inputs for the Answers:**
- Each question (a, b, c) requires a numerical input with appropriate units.
