Chapter 5, Problem 27SP
The hinges of a uniform door which weighs 200 N are 2.5 m apart. One hinge is a distance d from the top of the door, while the other is a distance d from the bottom. The door is 1.0 m wide. The weight of the door is supported by the lower hinge. Determine the forces exerted by the hinges on the door.

A door 1.00 m wide and 2.00 m high weighs 330 N and is supported by two hinges, one 0.50 m from the top and the other 0.50 m from the bottom. Each hinge supports half the total weight of the door. Assuming that the door’s center of gravity is at its center, find the horizontal components of force exerted on the door by each hinge.
A non-uniform beam has a length of 4.74 m and a mass of 63.7 kg. The beam is resting horizontally on two supports. The first support is located 1.31 m from the left edge of the beam and applies an upward force of 199 N to the beam. The second support is located 1.86 m to the right of the first support. How much upward force is applied on the beam by the second support?
A 22.3 kg uniform beam is in static equilibrium. The mass of the object at the end of the beam is 43.7 kg. What is the magnitude of the tension force holding the beam? Assume the hinge is frictionless
