Question

Transcribed Image Text:3) A point mass is attached to one end of a beam levered against a spike which acts as the
pivot. The point mass weighs 250N and the beam has a uniform mass of 10kg and is 8m
long.

a. If a scale placed beneath the point mass reads 250N, what is the magnitude and
direction for the force at the pivot point?
Direction: North, 90° from x-axis
Magnitude to k* 250N = 2500 N
b. For the same scenario, how far must the pivot point be located relative to the
left edge of the beam? (Hint, both the boxes weight and the force from the scale
act at the farthest right edge of the beam.)

c. The pivot is then moved to be 6m from the left edge of the beam which now
makes a 60 angle with the floor. How much downward force would be needed at
the left-most edge of the beam to reduce the reading on the scale to zero? (Hint:
the beam is still in static eq. when the scale reads zero.)
