A 1,175 N dowel is held in place by a light cord at an angle ? = 31.0° to the horizontal as shown in the figure. The dowel is attached to a pivot at the bottom, and a mass of weight w = 2,100 N hangs from its top. The dowel makes an angle of ? = 59.0° with the horizontal. Assume the dowel is uniform. Find the tension in the supporting cord (in kN). kN (b) Find the components of the reaction force (in kN) exerted by the floor on the dowel. horizontal component:magnitude kNdirection vertical component:magnitude kNdirection
