- The drawing shows a uniform horizontal beam attached to a vertical wall by a frictionless hinge and supported from below at an angle θ = 35o by a brace that is attached to a pin. The beam has a weight of 342 N. Three additional forces keep the beam in equilibrium. The brace applies a force P¯ to the right end of the beam that is directed upward at the angle θ with respect to the horizontal. The hinge applies a force to the left end of the beam that has a horizontal component H¯ and a vertical component V¯. Find the magnitudes of these three forces.arrow_forward6m T 10m A 8m Figure 4 A B 6. A horizontal beam AB of mass m = 20kg is supported from end B by a cable and hinged to a A vertical wall at end A.
