2. A uniform 300-kg beam, 6.00 m long, is freely pivoted at P, as shown in the figure. Thebeam is supported in a horizontal position by a light strut, 5.00 m long, which is freelypivoted at Q and is loosely pinned to the beam at R. A load of mass is suspended fromthe end of the beam at S. A maximum compression of 23,000 N in the strut ispermitted, due to safety. The maximum mass M of the load is closest toA. 554 kg.B789 kg.C. 1020 kg.D. 1090 kg.E. 1320 kg.3.00m R 3.00m S4.00 m5.00 mM
