Question

The mass of the rigid beam is 8.50kg, and it is 10.0 m long. It is supported by a cable attached to a spring as shown in the figure. A mass of Fg = 15.0kg is hung from its right end so that the beam is horizontal as shown. Find: a) The angle ?. b) The tension in the cable. c) The force of the wall.

Explanation / Answer

a)tan=4/3 =>=53.13

b)Tsin=(15+8.5)g

T=187.87N

c)Tcos=172.72N
